disease brought on from the environment around us.
in his 2nd sermon, similar to science, buddha taught disease (
roga
) is due to the inherent impermanence of all conditioned phenomena
please note, the translation 'affliction' below comes for the Pali word 'roga', which means disease
Form, O monks, is not-self; if form were self, then form would not lead to affliction
Feeling, O monks, is not-self; if feeling were self, then feeling would not lead to affliction
Perception, O monks, is not-self; if perception were self, then perception would not lead to affliction
Mental formations, O monks, are not-self; if mental formations were self, then mental formations would not lead to affliction
Consciousness, O monks, is not-self; if consciousness were self, then consciousness would not lead to affliction
