sn36.7:7.1 While a mendicant is meditating like this—mindful, aware, diligent, keen, and resolute—if neutral feelings arise, they understand:
sn36.7:7.2 ‘A neutral feeling has arisen in me.
sn36.7:7.3 That’s dependent, not independent.
sn36.7:7.4 Dependent on what?
sn36.7:7.5 Dependent on my own body.
sn36.7:7.6 But this body is impermanent, conditioned, dependently originated.
sn36.7:7.7 So how could a neutral feeling be permanent, since it has arisen dependent on a body that is impermanent, conditioned, and dependently originated?’
sn36.7:7.8 They meditate observing impermanence, vanishing, dispassion, cessation, and letting go in the body and neutral feeling.
sn36.7:7.9 As they do so, they give up the underlying tendency to ignorance toward the body and neutral feeling.
