At Sāvatthī.
There, etc.
"The all, monks, is impermanent.
And what, monks, is the all that is impermanent?
The eye, monks, is impermanent, forms are impermanent, eye-consciousness is impermanent, eye-contact is impermanent.
Whatever feeling arises with eye-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is impermanent. Etc.
The tongue is impermanent, flavours are impermanent, tongue-consciousness is impermanent, tongue-contact is impermanent.
Whatever feeling arises with tongue-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is impermanent.
The body is impermanent... etc.
The mind is impermanent, mental phenomena are impermanent, mind-consciousness is impermanent, mind-contact is impermanent.
Whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is impermanent.
Seeing thus, monks, a learned noble disciple becomes disenchanted with the eye, becomes disenchanted with forms, becomes disenchanted with eye-consciousness, becomes disenchanted with eye-contact.
He becomes disenchanted with whatever feeling arises with eye-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant. Etc.
He becomes disenchanted with the mind, becomes disenchanted with mental phenomena, becomes disenchanted with mind-consciousness, becomes disenchanted with mind-contact, becomes disenchanted with whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant.
Being disenchanted, he becomes dispassionate;
through dispassion, he becomes liberated;
when liberated, there is the knowledge: 'Liberated.'
He understands: 'Birth is eliminated, the holy life has been lived, what had to be done has been done, there is no more coming back to any state of being.'"
