[150]

[1] Thus have I heard:

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

And there the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:

"Brethren!"

"Master!" responded those brethren.

The Exalted One said:

"For a clansman, brethren,
who has gone forth in faith
this is the proper way:

Let him live seeing no soul in body.

Let him live seeing no soul in feeling.

Let him live seeing no soul in perception.

Let him live seeing no soul in the activities.

Let him live seeing no soul in consciousness.

So living seeing no soul in body,
so living seeing no soul in feeling,||
so living seeing no soul in perception,||
so living seeing no soul in the activities,||
so living seeing no soul in consciousness||
he fully understands body,||
he fully understands feeling,||
he fully understands perception,||
he fully understands the activities,||
he fully understands consciousness.

Fully understanding body,||
fully understanding feeling,||
fully understanding perception,||
fully understanding the activities,||
fully understanding consciousness
he is fully released from body,
he is fully released from feeling,
he is fully released from perception,
he is fully released from the activities,
he is fully released from consciousness;
he is fully released from birth,
from old age and death,
grief,
lamentation,
suffering,
woe
and despair.

He is fully released, I declare,
from suffering."
