Dutiyaesanāsutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Tisso imā, bhikkhave, esanā.“Monks, there are these three searches. Katamā tisso?Which three? Kāmesanā, bhavesanā, brahmacariyesanā—The search for sensuality, the search for becoming, the search for a holy life. imā kho, bhikkhave, tisso esanā”ti.These are the three searches.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Kāmesanā bhavesanā, brahmacariyesanā saha;Sensuality-search, becoming-search, together with the holy-life search– Iti saccaparāmāso, diṭṭhiṭṭhānā samussayā.i.e., grasping at ‘such is the truth’ based on an accumulation of viewpoints: through the relinquishing of searches & the abolishing of viewpoints
Sabbarāgavirattassa, taṇhakkhayavimuttino;of one dispassionate to all passion, and released in the ending of craving, Esanā paṭinissaṭṭhā, diṭṭhiṭṭhānā samūhatā; Esanānaṁ khayā bhikkhu, nirāso akathaṅkathī”ti.through the ending of searches, the monk is without perplexity, free of longing.
