Friends:

Cutting Craving for the Clusters of Clinging Ends all Pain!

At Savatthi the Blessed Buddha said this:
Bhikkhus: Whatever desire & lust there is for form, feeling, perception,
mental construction and consciousness, whatever greed, urge & craving,
whatever engagement, entanglement & clinging, whatever habitual addiction,
obsession, and underlying tendency there is for this form, feeling, perception,
mental construction and consciousness, overcome, eliminate & leave it behind!!!
Thus all that form, feeling, perception, mental construction and consciousness
will be overcome & conquered, cut off at the very root, made like a palm stump,
completely destroyed, so that it is unable to rearise again...

This - only this - is the End of Suffering...!!!
