1"Friend Sāriputta, it is said, ‘feeling, feeling.’ What now is feeling?"

"There are, friend, these three feelings: pleasant feeling, painful feeling, neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling. These are the three feelings."

"But, friend, is there a path, is there a way for the full understanding of these three feelings?"

"There is a path, friend, there is a way … this Noble Eightfold Path … ." sn.iv.256
