AN I Suttas 1-10 Rūpādi (Citta Pariyādāna) Vagga “Section on that which Dominates the Heart” 1. This is what I personally heard. At one time, The Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anāthapiṇḍika at Jeta’s Park, in the City of Sāvatthī. There, The Blessed One addressed the Bhikkhus by saying: “Bhikkhus!” “Yes, Blessed Lord!” Those Bhikkhus replied, and The Blessed One continued: “Bhikkhus, I do not know of a single form or shape that so utterly dominates the heart of a man, as seeing the form or shape of a woman. “Truly, nothing captivates a man’s heart like the shape and figure of a woman.”
