Asubhānupassīsutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Asubhānupassī, bhikkhave, kāyasmiṁ viharatha;“Remain focused, monks, on foulness in the body.
ānāpānassati ca vo ajjhattaṁ parimukhaṁ sūpaṭṭhitā hotu;Have mindfulness of in-&-out breathing well-established to the fore within you.
sabbasaṅkhāresu aniccānupassino viharatha.Remain focused on the inconstancy of all fabrications.
Asubhānupassīnaṁ, bhikkhave, kāyasmiṁ viharataṁ yo subhāya dhātuyā rāgānusayo so pahīyati.
pahīyati → pahiyyati (mr)For one who remains focused on the foulness of the body,
the obsession with passion for the property of beauty is abandoned.
Ānāpānassatiyā ajjhattaṁ parimukhaṁ sūpaṭṭhititāya ye bāhirā vitakkāsayā vighātapakkhikā, te na honti.For one who has mindfulness of in-&-out breathing well-established to the fore within oneself,
annoying external thoughts & inclinations don’t exist.
Sabbasaṅkhāresu aniccānupassīnaṁ viharataṁ yā avijjā sā pahīyati, yā vijjā sā uppajjatī”ti.For one who remains focused on the inconstancy of all fabrications, ignorance is abandoned, clear knowing arises.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
“Asubhānupassī kāyasmiṁ, ānāpāne paṭissato;
paṭissato → patissato (bj, cck, pts-vp-pli1)Focusing on foulness in the body, mindful of in-&-out breathing, seeing Sabbasaṅkhārasamathaṁ, passaṁ ātāpi sabbadā.the pacification of all fabrications –ardent always:Sa ve sammaddaso bhikkhu, yato tattha vimuccati;he is a monk who’s seen rightly. from that he is there released. Abhiññāvosito santo, sa ve yogātigo munī”ti.A master of direct knowing, at peace, he is a sage gone beyond bonds.
