I read the following on the internet: > Ucchedavāda is the view that there is no afterlife; or specifically that there is no rebirth (and by association no karma). While Buddhaghosa's commentary to DN 1 asserts the above, which was later corrected by Dhammapala's secondary commentary, where in the Suttas is this idea found? Exactly where did the Buddha say ucchedavāda is the view there is no afterlife?
