No, the term features many times in the Pali Canon. It's very common.

Hi asahi, what I was saying in the other thread was that the word dukkha did not appear in the Pali for the statement that I quoted from MN 121. I wasn’t saying that it didn’t appear in the entire canon.

I could’ve been more clear. :embarassed:
