1At Sāvatthī. [n.229] The next three suttas correspond to 22:40–42. Ee has omitted the text of SN22.148, apparently by oversight as the title is correct while the text is that of SN22.149. Accordingly, in this saṁyutta all the following sutta numbers in Ee are short by one. "Bhikkhus, for a clansman who has gone forth out of faith, this is what accords with the Dhamma: he should dwell contemplating impermanence in form,sn.iii.180 feeling, perception, volitional formations, and consciousness. [n.228] See SN22.39 and n. 52.

One who dwells contemplating impermanence in form … towards consciousness, fully understands form, feeling, perception, volitional formations, and consciousness.

One who fully understands form … consciousness is freed from form, feeling, perception, volitional formations, and consciousness.

He is freed from birth, aging, and death; freed from sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair; freed from suffering, I say."
