[1][pts][olds][agku] "Bhikkhus, there are these five benefits of walking meditation.

What five?

[30] One becomes capable of journeys; one becomes capable of striving; one becomes healthy; what one has eaten, drunk, consumed, and tasted is properly digested; the concentration attained through walking meditation is long lasting.

These are the five benefits of walking meditation."
