[14] [7]

[1][bodh] Thus have I heard:

The Exalted One was once staying near Sāvatthī, at Jeta Grove, in Anāthapiṇḍika's Park.

Then the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:

"Brethren."

"Lord," responded those brethren to the Exalted One.

The Exalted One said:

"That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the eye, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the ear, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the nose, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the tongue, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the body, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the uprising,
the persisting,
the rebirth,
the manifestation of the mind, -
that is the uprising of ill,
the persisting of diseases,
the manifestation of decay and death.

 

§

 

But that, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the [8] going out of the eye, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the going out of the ear, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the going out of the nose, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the going out of the tongue, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the going out of the body, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death.

■

That, Brethren, which is the ceasing,
the quelling,
the going out of the mind, -
that is the ceasing of ill,
the quelling of diseases,
the going out of decay and death."
