Untitled Discourse on Greed (2nd) ~

ā€œMendicants, for insight into greed, seven things should be developed. ā€œRāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiƱƱāya satta dhammā bhāvetabbā. What seven? Katame satta? The perception of impermanence, the perception of not-self, the perception of ugliness, the perception of drawbacks, the perception of giving up, the perception of fading away, and the perception of cessation. AniccasaƱƱā, anattasaƱƱā, asubhasaƱƱā, ādÄ«navasaƱƱā, pahānasaƱƱā, virāgasaƱƱā, nirodhasaññā—These seven things should be developed for insight into greed.ā€ rāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiƱƱāya ime satta dhammā bhāvetabbÄā€ti.
