13.28

如佛說義足經云。佛告梵志言。世有五事。不可得避。亦無脫者。何等為五。一當耗減法。二當亡棄法。三當病瘦法。四當老朽法。五當死去法。此之五法。欲使不耗減。是不可得。

As the *Arthavargīya Sūtra* spoken by the Buddha says: The Buddha told the brāhmaṇa: 'There are five things in the world that cannot be avoided, and from which none can escape. What are the five? 1. The condition of being subject to depletion; 2. The condition of being subject to loss and abandonment; 3. The condition of being subject to illness and emaciation; 4. The condition of being subject to aging and decay; 5. The condition of being subject to death. Regarding these five conditions, to wish that depletion should not occur is impossible.'
