Aug 12, 2022 Samyutta Nikaya 12.23 "Proximate Cause"
This sutta explains not only the 12 links that we all experience in what we know is the normal flow of Dependent Origination, but also the additional 11 links, where we become disenchanted with the world and set on the path to Nibbana. It starts with 'Faith' that there is a way out of suffering and continues with 11 more links.
