5.1
“Arahatā panāvuso sāriputta, katame dhammā yoniso manasi kātabbā”ti?
“But Reverend Sāriputta, what things should a perfected one rationally apply the mind to?”
5.2
“Arahatāpi kho, āvuso koṭṭhika, ime pañcupādānakkhandhe aniccato dukkhato rogato gaṇḍato sallato aghato ābādhato parato palokato suññato anattato yoniso manasi kātabbā.
“Reverend Koṭṭhita, a perfected one should also rationally apply the mind to the five grasping aggregates as impermanent, as suffering, as diseased, as a boil, as a dart, as gloom, as an affliction, as alien, as breaking apart, as empty, as not-self.
5.3
Natthi, khvāvuso, arahato uttari karaṇīyaṃ katassa vā paticayo;
A perfected one has nothing more to do, and nothing that needs improvement.
5.4
api ca ime dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā diṭṭhadhammasukhavihārāya ceva saṃvattanti satisampajaññāya cā”ti.
Still, these things, when developed and cultivated, lead to blissful meditation in this life, and also to mindfulness and situational awareness.”
