Samyuktagama (Sanskrit fragments) 259.16

259.16

舍利弗言：「摩訶拘絺羅！阿羅漢亦復思惟：『此五受陰法為病、為癰、為刺、為殺、無常、苦、空、非我。』所以者何？為得未得故，證未證故，見法樂住故。」

Śāriputra replied, “Mahākauṣṭhila, an arhat also contemplates this, ‘The five acquired aggregates are illnesses, abscesses, thorns, and killers. They are impermanent, painful, empty, and not self.’ Why is that? Because he has attained what was yet to be attained, realized what was yet to be realized, and sees the teaching’s abode of happiness.”
