~  Untitled Discourse on Greed (3rd)

“Rāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiññāya satta dhammā bhāvetabbā.  “Mendicants, for insight into greed, seven things should be developed.
Katame satta?  What seven?
Asubhasaññā, maraṇasaññā, āhāre paṭikūlasaññā, sabbaloke anabhiratasaññā, aniccasaññā, anicce dukkhasaññā, dukkhe anattasaññā—  The perceptions of ugliness, death, repulsiveness of food, dissatisfaction with the whole world, impermanence, suffering in impermanence, and not-self in suffering.
rāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiññāya ime satta dhammā bhāvetabbā”ti.  These seven things should be developed for insight into greed.”
