THE MODES OF DEPORTMENT
“And further, O bhikkhus, when he is going, a bhikkhu understands: ‘I am going’;
when he is standing, he understands: ‘I am standing’;
when he is sitting, he understands: ‘I am sitting’;
when he is lying down, he understands: ‘I am lying down’;
or just as his body is disposed so he understands it.
“Thus he lives contemplating the body in the body internally,
or he lives contemplating the body in the body externally,
or he lives contemplating the body in the body internally and externally.
He lives contemplating originationthings in the body,
or he lives contemplating dissolutionthings in the body,
or he lives contemplating originationand- dissolution-things, in the body.
Or indeed his mindfulness is established with the thought: ‘The body exists’,
to the extent necessary just for knowledge and remembrance,
and he lives independent and clings to naught in the world.
“Thus, also, O bhikkhus, a bhikkhu lives contemplating the body in the body.”
