15.1
‘Vinicchayaṃ paṭicca chandarāgo’ti iti kho panetaṃ vuttaṃ, tadānanda, imināpetaṃ pariyāyena veditabbaṃ, yathā vinicchayaṃ paṭicca chandarāgo.
Evaluation gives rise to desire and lust’—that’s what I said. And this is a way to understand how this is so.
15.2
Vinicchayo ca hi, ānanda, nābhavissa sabbena sabbaṃ sabbathā sabbaṃ kassaci kimhici, sabbaso vinicchaye asati vinicchayanirodhā api nu kho chandarāgo paññāyethā”ti?
Suppose there were totally and utterly no evaluation for anyone anywhere. When there’s no evaluation at all, with the cessation of evaluation, would desire and lust still be found?”
15.3
“No hetaṃ, bhante”.
“No, sir.”
15.4
“Tasmātihānanda, eseva hetu etaṃ nidānaṃ esa samudayo esa paccayo chandarāgassa, yadidaṃ vinicchayo.
“That’s why this is the cause, source, origin, and reason of desire and lust, namely evaluation.
