“Chadvārārammaṇesvettha,

viññāṇesu ca phassesu;

Vedanāsu ca dvārassa,

suttā honti visuṁ aṭṭha.

Saññā sañcetanā taṇhā,

vitakkesu vicāre ca;

Gocarassa visuṁ aṭṭha,

pañcakkhandhe ca pacceke.

Soḷasasvettha mūlesu,

aniccaṁ dukkhamanattā;

Khayā vayā virāgā ca,

nirodhā paṭinissaggā.

Kamaṁ aṭṭhānupassanā,

yojetvāna visuṁ visuṁ;

Sampiṇḍitesu sabbesu,

honti pañca satāni ca;

Aṭṭhavīsati suttāni,

āhuneyye ca vaggike”.
