[1] Thus have I heard:—
 
 
The Exalted One was staying at Sāvatthī.
 
 
Then thus spake the Exalted One:
 
 
'Concentration, brethren, practise<ref>Cf. S. v, 414, quoted at V.M. i, 371; Expos. i, 216. The whole chapter is found at intervals in K.S. ii. Buddhaghosa, commenting on this passage at V.M. 523, likens the process to that of four men pulling up a creeper; the two men who hold on to the middle of it go off with their bit when it is cut; but the man who cuts the root is the one who knows the truth of the whole matter.</ref> concentration.
 
A brother who is concentrated, brethren,
 
knows a thing as it really is.
 
 
And what does he know as it really is?
 
 
The arising of body
 
and the passing away thereof;
 
the arising of feeling
 
and the passing away thereof;
 
the arising of perception
 
and the passing away thereof;
 
the arising of activities
 
and the passing away thereof;
 
the arising of consciousness
 
and the passing away thereof.
 
 
 
And what, brethren,
 
is the arising of body?
 
 
Herein, brethren, one is enamoured,
 
one welcomes;<ref>abhivadati. Comy., 'Cries out in raptures over it.'</ref>
 
having clung one persists.
 
 
To what?
 
 
He is enamoured of body;
 
he welcomes body,
 
clings to body;
 
so clinging there comes a lure upon him.
 
 
That lure which is in body is grasping.
 
 
Conditioned by that grasping is becoming.
 
 
Conditioned by becoming is birth.
 
 
Conditioned by birth
 
old age and decay,
 
sorrow and grief,
 
woe, lamentation and despair
 
together come into being.
 
 
Such, brethren, is the arising of body.
 
 
Thus is the arising of this whole mass of Ill.

one welcomes;
 
having clung one persists.
 
 
To what?
 
 
He is enamoured of feeling;
 
he welcomes feeling,
 
clings to feeling;
 
so clinging there comes a lure upon him.
 
 
That lure which is in feeling is grasping.
 
 
Conditioned by that grasping is becoming.
