Then Venerable Ānanda went up to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down to one side.

Ānāpānassatisamādhi, ānanda, ekadhammo bhāvito bahulīkato cattāro satipaṭṭhāne paripūreti, cattāro satipaṭṭhānā bhāvitā bahulīkatā satta bojjhaṅge paripūrenti, satta bojjhaṅgā bhāvitā bahulīkatā vijjāvimuttiṁ paripūrentīti. Kathaṁ bhāvito cānanda, ānāpānassatisamādhi, kathaṁ bahulīkato cattāro satipaṭṭhāne paripūreti?
