Except craving, all skilful, unskilfuland indeterminate states of the three planes compose the Truth of 111;craving is the Truth of Origin; the removal of craving is the Truth of Cessation;the Noble Eightfold Path is the Truth of the Path. Again, except craving, allother defilements and the skilful, unskilful and indeterminate states of thethree planes compose the Truth of 111; craving and the defilements (associatedwith it) compose the Truth of Origin; the removal of these is the Truth ofCessation; the path is the Truth of the Path. Again, except craving, all defilementsand skilful, unskilful and indeterminate states of the three planes composethe Truth of 111; craving and the defilements, and all the unskilful states composethe Truth of Origin; the removal of these is the Truth of Cessation; the pathis the Truth of the Path. And again, except craving and the defilements and allunskilful states (associated with it) the other unskilful states of the three planesand the indeterminate states of the three planes compose the Truth of 111;craving, the remaining defilements, unskilful states and skilful states of thethree planes compose the (Truth of) Origin; the removal of these is the Truthof Cessation; the path is the Truth of the Path.

Origin means "with craving" and "with latent tendencies".Other defilements are origin in the sense of removing and in the sense ofmanifestation of becoming.
