If its intrinsic characteristic is pleasure and the figurative approach is suffering, why did the World-Honoured One teach observing the figurative approach and not observing the intrinsic characteristic? The reply says: Because observing the intrinsic characteristic increases greed and so forth, whereas when observing the figurative approach one is able to attain liberation; therefore, he instructed the observation of suffering and did not instruct the observation of pleasure. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 22.86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.22.86) - [Next: 22.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.22.88) - [Up: 22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.22) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822~en-mt.22.87) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.22.87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.22.87) · Pramāṇa
