"Bhikkhus, just as various winds blow in the sky:
winds from the east,
winds from the west,
winds from the north,
winds from the south,
dusty winds
and dustless winds,
cold winds
and hot winds,
mild winds
and strong winds;
so too, various feelings arise in this body:
pleasant feeling arises,
painful feeling arises,
neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling arises."
