[225] The truth of origin (samudaya-sacca) is a root (hetu); the truth of cessation (nirodha-sacca) is not a root; two truths sometimes are roots, sometimes are not roots. Two truths are accompanied by roots (sahetuka); the truth of cessation is without roots (ahetuka); the truth of suffering (dukkha-sacca) sometimes is accompanied by roots, sometimes is without roots. Two truths are associated with roots (hetu-sampayutta); the truth of cessation is dissociated from roots (hetu-vippayutta); the truth of suffering sometimes is associated with roots, sometimes is dissociated from roots. The truth of origin is both a root and accompanied by roots; the truth of cessation should not be said to be either "both a root and accompanied by roots" or "accompanied by roots but not a root"; the truth of the path (magga-sacca) sometimes is both a root and accompanied by roots, sometimes is accompanied by roots but not a root; the truth of suffering sometimes is both a root and accompanied by roots, sometimes is accompanied by roots but not a root, sometimes should not be said to be either "both a root and accompanied by roots" or "accompanied by roots but not a root." The truth of origin is both a root and associated with roots; the truth of cessation should not be said to be either "both a root and associated with roots" or "associated with roots but not a root"; the truth of the path sometimes is both a root and associated with roots, sometimes is associated with roots but not a root; the truth of suffering sometimes is both a root and associated with roots, sometimes is associated with roots but not a root, sometimes should not be said to be either "both a root and associated with roots" or "associated with roots but not a root." The truth of cessation is not a root and is without roots; the truth of origin should not be said to be either "not a root but accompanied by roots" or "not a root and without roots"; the truth of the path sometimes is not a root but accompanied by roots, sometimes should not be said to be either "not a root but accompanied by roots" or "not a root and without roots"; the truth of suffering sometimes is not a root but accompanied by roots, sometimes is not a root and without roots, sometimes should not be said to be either "not a root but accompanied by roots" or "not a root and without roots."
