Can you elaborate more element?

As far as I read it, "sabbe sankhara dukkha" : all conditioned phenomena cause dukkha when attached to as all conditioned phenomena are impermanent thus incapable of giving a permanent satisfaction. Element

Hi Deshy

The phrase sabbe sankhara dukkha is not related to attachment. The phrase is the natural extension from sabbe sankhara anicca (all conditioned things are impermanent). It is insight knowledge or vipassana nana. It is an inherent characteristic (lakkhana) of conditioned things and unrelated to the mind's perceptions, views, etc. It is objective rather than subjective.

The phrase exclusively has the meaning: "all conditioned phenomena are impermanent thus incapable of giving a permanent satisfaction."

Penetrating sabbe sankhara dukkha via insight (vipassana) results in the mind losing infatuation towards objects. The result is dispassion and liberation.

To say an arahant ceases to experience sabbe sankhara dukkha is totally not correct. It is the very opposite. The arahant continually experiences sabbe sankhara dukkha and thus their mind is continually free from infatuation, craving and attachment.

Kind regards
