"The theory of dependent arising (paiicca-samuppada) seeks to understand the
dynamic relationship between ignorance, the afflictions, and their ensuing
actions, by analyzing the patterns through which they arise, persist, and pass
away in dependence upon their supporting conditions. That is, the processes
that perpetuate our conditioned existence are neither completely random nor
completely determined; rather, they follow regular and discernable patterns of
arising. It is these patterns that are expressed in the formula of dependent
origination, an understanding of which was considered indispensable for
reversing their deleterious consequences. The simplest expression of this
arising in dependence on conditions is formulated as follows:
When this exists, that comes to be; with the arising of this, that
arises.
When this does not exist, that does not come to be; with the cessation
of this, that ceases."
