MN 28

Mahāhatthipadopamasutta

The Longer Simile of the Elephant’s Footprint

Majjhima Nikāya · Terj. Bhikkhu Sujato

mn28:7.1 There comes a time when the exterior water element flares up.

mn28:7.2 At that time the exterior earth element vanishes.

mn28:7.3 So for all its great age, the earth element will be revealed as impermanent, liable to end, vanish, and perish.

mn28:7.4 What then of this ephemeral body appropriated by craving? Rather than ‘I’ or ‘mine’ or ‘I am’, they consider it to be none of these things.
