“Mendicants, rationally apply the mind to sights. Truly see the impermanence of sights.“Rūpe, bhikkhave, yoniso manasi karotha, rūpāniccatañca yathābhūtaṁ samanupassatha. When a mendicant does this, they grow disillusioned with sights.Rūpe, bhikkhave, bhikkhu yoniso manasikaronto, rūpāniccatañca yathābhūtaṁ samanupassanto rūpesupi nibbindati. When relishing ends, greed ends. When greed ends, relishing ends.Nandikkhayā rāgakkhayo; When relishing and greed end, the mind is said to be well freed.Nandirāgakkhayā cittaṁ suvimuttanti vuccati.
