v1.c14.554

Giri (or Girimānanda) Sutta.—Preached at Jetavana. Ananda brings news to the Buddha that Girimānanda is ill; would the Buddha go and visit him? The Buddha suggests that Ānanda should repeat to Girimānanda the ten ideas (*saññā*)—*aniccasaññā, anattasaññā, asubhasaññā, ādīnavasaññā, pahānasaññā, virāgasaññā, nirodhasaññā, sabbalokaanabhiratisaññā, sabbasaṅkhāresu aniccasaññā, and ānāpānasatisaññā—and proceeds to expound them in detail. Ānanda does so and Girimānanda recovers.¹
