[1][than][olds][bodh] Thus have I heard:—

The Exalted One was staying at Sāvatthī.

The Exalted One said:

"Of that brother, brethren, who is versed in conformity to the Norm,
this is the accordant practice:

He should abide seeing the lack of self of body,
he should abide seeing the lack of self in feeling,
he should abide seeing the lack of self in perception,
he should abide seeing the lack of self in the activities,
he should abide seeing the lack of self in consciousness.

So abiding seeing the lack of self in body,
seeing the lack of self in feeling,
seeing the lack of self in perception,
seeing the lack of self in the activities,
seeing the lack of self in consciousness,
he fully discerns body,
he fully discerns feeling,
he fully discerns perception,
he fully discerns the activities,
he fully discerns consciousness.

Fully discerning body,
fully discerning feeling,
fully discerning perception,
fully discerning the activities,
fully discerning consciousness;
he is released from body,
he is released from feeling,
he is released from perception,
he is released from activities,
he is released from consciousness,
he is released from rebirth,
old age and decay,
sorrow and grief,
from woe,
lamentation
and despair.

I declare him to be released from suffering."
