SN 35.7 The Interior as Anicca in the Three Times – Ajjhattāniccātītānāgatasutta

 

“Bhikkhū, the eye of the past and future is anicca,

“Cakkhuṁ, bhikkhave, aniccaṁ atītānāgataṁ;

let alone the present.

ko pana vādo paccuppannassa.

Seeing this, a learned noble disciple doesn’t worry about the eye of the past,

Evaṁ passaṁ, bhikkhave, sutavā ariyasāvako atītasmiṁ cakkhusmiṁ anapekkho hoti;

they don’t look forward to enjoying the eye in the future,

anāgataṁ cakkhuṁ nābhinandati;

and they practice for disillusionment, dispassion, and cessation regarding the eye in the present.

paccuppannassa cakkhussa nibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya paṭipanno hoti.
