In the Buddha's first discourse, he identifies craving (tanha) as the cause of suffering (dukkha). He then identifies three objects of craving: the craving for existence; the craving for non-existence and the craving for sense pleasures (kama). Kama is identified as one of five hindrances to the attainment of jhana according to the Buddha's teaching. Throughout the Sutta Pitaka the Buddha often compares sexual pleasure to arrows or darts. So in the Kama Sutta (4.1) from the Sutta Nipata the Buddha explains that craving sexual pleasure is a cause of suffering. The Buddha then goes on to say:

  • In the Buddha's first discourse, he identifies craving (tanha) as the cause of suffering (dukkha). He then identifies three objects of craving: the craving for existence; the craving for non-existence and the craving for sense pleasures (kama). Kama is identified as one of five hindrances to the attainment of jhana according to the Buddha's teaching. Throughout the Sutta Pitaka the Buddha often compares sexual pleasure to arrows or darts. So in the Kama Sutta (4.1) from the Sutta Nipata the Buddha explains that craving sexual pleasure is a cause of suffering. If one, longing for sensual pleasure, achieves it, yes, he's enraptured at heart. The mortal gets what he wants. But if for that person — longing, desiring — the pleasures diminish, he's shattered, as if shot with an arrow. The Buddha then goes on to say: So one, always mindful, should avoid sensual desires. Letting them go, he will cross over the flood like one who, having bailed out the boat, has reached the far shore. The 'flood' refers to the deluge of human suffering. The 'far shore' is nirvana, a state in which there is no sensual desire. The meaning of the Kama Sutta is that sensual desire, like any habitual sense pleasure, brings suffering. To lay people the Buddha advised that they should at least avoid sexual misconduct (See Theravada definition below). From the Buddha's full-time disciples, the ordained monks and nuns, strict celibacy (called brahmacarya) had always been required. (en)
  • Dalam Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, Gautama Buddha menyatakan bahwa "nafsu keinginan" (tanha) adalah penyebab penderitaan (dukkha). Ia kemudian menyebutkan tiga objek nafsu keinginan: nafsu untuk ada, nafsu untuk tidak ada, dan nafsu akan kenikmatan indra (kama). Kama dianggap sebagai salah satu dari lima hal yang menghalangi pencapaian . Di dalam Sutta Pitaka, Buddha sering kali membandingkan kenikmatan seksual dengan panah. Begitu pula di dalam Kama Sutta , Buddha menjelaskan bahwa nafsu seksual adalah penyebab penderitaan: Jika seseorang yang amat menginginkan kenikmatan seksual mencapainya, hatinya terpesona. Ia mendapat apa yang ia inginkan. Tapi jika kenikmatan itu berkurang, ia akan hancur seperti ditembak oleh panah. — Kama Sutta, Sutta Nipata Buddha kemudian mengatakan: Jadi seseorang sebaiknya menghindari nafsu seksual. Biarkan nafsu itu pergi, [maka] ia akan melintasi banjir seperti seseorang yang telah mencapai pesisir jauh setelah keluar dari kapal. "Banjir" mengacu kepada luapan penderitaan seksual, "pesisir jauh" adalah nibbana, yaitu suatu keadaan tanpa nafsu seksual. Selain menyarankan manusia untuk menghindari nafsu seksual, para biksu dan biksuni diharuskan berselibat (disebut brahmacarya). (in)
