1"Bhikkhus, there are these five benefits of walking meditation. What five?

1"Pañcime, bhikkhave, caṅkame ānisaṁsā. Katame pañca?

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.[n.998] Cīraṭṭhitiko hoti. Mp: "If one has acquired the mark (of concentration) while standing up, it is lost when one sits down. If one has acquired the mark while sitting, it is lost when one lies down. But for one who has resolved on walking up and down and acquired the mark in a moving object, it is not lost even when one stands still, sits down, and lies down." These are the five benefits of walking meditation."

Addhānakkhamo hoti, padhānakkhamo hoti, appābādho hoti, asitaṁ pītaṁ khāyitaṁ sāyitaṁ sammā pariṇāmaṁ gacchati, caṅkamādhigato samādhi ciraṭṭhitiko hoti. Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca caṅkame ānisaṁsā"ti.

Navamaṁ.
