155. The brahman Ārāmadanda asked Venerable Kaccāna: “What is the cause, what is the reason why nobles, brahmans and householders all quarrel with each other?”
“They do so because of their bondage to and entanglement with sensual pleasures, their attachment to and greed for sensual pleasures.”
“What is the cause, Master Kaccāna, what is the reason why monks quarrel with monks?”
“They do so because of their bondage to and entanglement with opinions, their attachment to and greed for opinions.”
A.I,66* (AN 2.37)
