1"Bhikkhus, there are these three feelings. What three? Pleasant feeling, painful feeling, neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling.

"Those ascetics or brahmins, bhikkhus, who do not understand as they really are the gratification, the danger, and the escape in the case of these three feelings: [n.258] In all three eds., the text of this sutta includes the words samudayañ ca atthaṅgamañ ca ("the origination and the passing away"), and the wording of the next sutta is the same. Since this would obviate the need for its separate existence, we can be sure that SN36.27 originally had only the three terms assāda, ādı̄nava, nissaraṇa, and SN36.28 all five. I have translated on the basis of this hypothesis, which can claim support from the parallels: 14:37–38, 22:107–8, and 22:129–34. these I do not consider to be ascetics among ascetics or brahmins among brahmins, and these venerable ones do not, by realizing it for themselves with direct knowledge, in this very life enter and dwell in the goal of asceticism or the goal of brahminhood.

"But, bhikkhus, those ascetics and brahmins who understand these things as they really are: these I consider to be ascetics among ascetics and brahmins among brahmins, and these venerable ones, by realizing it for themselves with direct knowledge, in this very life enter and dwell in the goal of asceticism and the goal of brahminhood." sn.iv.235

1"Tisso imā, bhikkhave, vedanā. Katamā tisso? Sukhā vedanā, dukkhā vedanā, adukkhamasukhā vedanā.

Ye hi keci, bhikkhave, samaṇā vā brāhmaṇā vā imāsaṁ tissannaṁ vedanānaṁ samudayañca atthaṅgamañca assādañca ādīnavañca nissaraṇañca yathābhūtaṁ nappajānanti.

Ye ca kho keci, bhikkhave, samaṇā vā brāhmaṇā vā imāsaṁ tissannaṁ vedanānaṁ samudayañca atthaṅgamañca assādañca ādīnavañca nissaraṇañca yathābhūtaṁ pajānanti. Te kho me, bhikkhave, samaṇā vā brāhmaṇā vā samaṇesu ceva samaṇasammatā brāhmaṇesu ca brāhmaṇasammatā. Te ca panāyasmanto sāmaññatthañca brahmaññatthañca, diṭṭheva dhamme sayaṁ abhiññā sacchikatvā upasampajja vihārantī"ti.
