Dhammacakkappavattanasuttam from the VRI cd (chattha Sangayana
version 3)
As a complete beginner in Pali i have a few questions perhapes
someone could answer.(I havnt put the diacritic info in,please let me
know if it is needed for the answers)
1.>jarapi dukkha,byadhipi dukkho, maranampi dukkham< Why is there 3
forms of Dukkha here. I have a little knowledge of declension's, but
dont understand why the 3 forms here.
2.>byadhi< I presume this is Pali and thought "vyadhi" was sanskrit
but the couple of Pali dictionaries i have only have "vyadhi"
3.>jatipi,jarapi,byadhipi,maranampi<please explane the "pi"
4.The above sutta doesn't seem to have ,
>sokaparidevadukkhadomanassupayasapi dukkha,< in it,although the 2
english translations at accesstoinsight seem to have the passage
translated in them? Have they just added it from the Nibbedhikasuttam,
or is it missing from the VRI cd?
