Āsavakkhayasutta

The Ending of Defilements

“Pañcime, bhikkhave, dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā āsavānaṁ khayāya saṁvattanti.
“Mendicants, these five things, when developed and cultivated, lead to the ending of defilements.

Katame pañca?
What five?

Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu asubhānupassī kāye viharati, āhāre paṭikūlasaññī, sabbaloke anabhiratasaññī, sabbasaṅkhāresu aniccānupassī, maraṇasaññā kho panassa ajjhattaṁ sūpaṭṭhitā hoti.
A mendicant meditates observing the ugliness of the body, perceives the repulsiveness of food, perceives dissatisfaction with the whole world, observes the impermanence of all conditions, and has well established the perception of their own death.

Ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā āsavānaṁ khayāya saṁvattantī”ti.
These five things, when developed and cultivated, lead to the ending of defilements.”

Dasamaṁ.

Saññāvaggo dutiyo.

Tassuddānaṁ

Dve ca saññā dve vaḍḍhī ca,

sākacchena ca sājīvaṁ;

Iddhipādā ca dve vuttā,

nibbidā cāsavakkhayāti.
