[149]

[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 that which is impermanent, brethren,
there lust should be put away by you.

And what, brethren, is impermanent?

Body, brethren, is impermanent.

Ye should put away lust there.

Feeling is impermanent.

Ye should put away lust there.

Perception is impermanent.

Ye should put away lust there.

The activities is impermanent.

Ye should put away lust there.

Consciousness is impermanent.

Ye should put away lust there.

Whatsoever, brethren, is impermanent,
there ye should put away lust."
