Ekamūla Sutta

A certain deity approaches the Blessed One while he was dwelling in the Jetavana grove at Sāvatthi and praises him in verse:

“The sage has crossed the abyss,¹ with its one root,² two whirlpools,³ three stains,⁴ five extensions,⁵ an ocean,⁶ and twelve currents.”⁷

S.i.32.

¹ Craving ² Ignorance ³ Eternalism and Annihilationism

⁴ Greed, ill-will, and delusion ⁵ The five strands of sense desire ⁶ Craving

⁷ Six internal and external sense bases.
