Untitled Discourse on Greed ~

ā€œFor insight into greed, eleven things should be developed. ā€œRāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiƱƱāya ekādasa dhammā bhāvetabbā. What eleven? Katame ekādasa? The first, second, third, and fourth absorptions; the heart’s releases by love, compassion, rejoicing, and equanimity; the dimensions of infinite space, infinite consciousness, and nothingness. Paį¹­hamaṁ jhānaṁ, dutiyaṁ jhānaṁ, tatiyaṁ jhānaṁ, catutthaṁ jhānaṁ, mettācetovimutti, karuṇācetovimutti, muditācetovimutti, upekkhācetovimutti, ākāsānaƱcāyatanaṁ, viññāṇaƱcāyatanaṁ, ākiƱcaƱƱāyatanaṁ—For insight into greed, these eleven things should be developed.ā€ rāgassa, bhikkhave, abhiƱƱāya ime ekādasa dhammā bhāvetabbÄā€.
