    “आनापानस्सति, भिक्खवे, भाविता बहुलीकता महप्फला होति महानिसंसा। कथं भाविता च, भिक्खवे, आनापानस्सति कथं बहुलीकता महप्फला होति महानिसंसा?

    “Ānāpānassati, bhikkhave, bhāvitā bahulīkatā mahapphalā hoti mahānisaṁsā. Kathaṁ bhāvitā ca, bhikkhave, ānāpānassati kathaṁ bahulīkatā mahapphalā hoti mahānisaṁsā?

    “Bhikkhus, when mindfulness of breathing is developed and cultivated it’s very fruitful and beneficial. And how is mindfulness of breathing developed and cultivated to be very fruitful and beneficial?

    इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु अरञ्ञगतो वा रुक्खमूलगतो वा सुञ्ञागारगतो वा निसीदति पल्लङ्कं आभुजित्वा उजुं कायं पणिधाय परिमुखं सतिं उपट्ठपेत्वा।

    Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu araññagato vā rukkhamūlagato vā suññāgāragato vā nisīdati pallaṅkaṁ ābhujitvā ujuṁ kāyaṁ paṇidhāya parimukhaṁ satiṁ upaṭṭhapetvā.

    It’s when a bhikkhu—gone to a wilderness, or to the root of a tree, or to an empty hut—sits down cross-legged, sets their body straight, and establishes mindfulness in front of them.

    सो सतोव अस्ससति, सतोव पस्ससति …पे…

    So satova assasati, satova passasati …pe…

    Just mindful, they breathe in. Mindful, they breathe out. …

    ‘पटिनिस्सग्गानुपस्सी अस्ससिस्सामीऽति सिक्खति, ‘पटिनिस्सग्गानुपस्सी पस्ससिस्सामीऽति सिक्खति।

    ‘paṭinissaggānupassī assasissāmī’ti sikkhati, ‘paṭinissaggānupassī passasissāmī’ti sikkhati.

    They practice like this: ‘I’ll breathe in observing letting go.’ They practice like this: ‘I’ll breathe out observing letting go.’

    एवं भाविता खो, भिक्खवे, आनापानस्सति एवं बहुलीकता महप्फला होति महानिसंसा।

    Evaṁ bhāvitā kho, bhikkhave, ānāpānassati evaṁ bahulīkatā mahapphalā hoti mahānisaṁsā.

    Mindfulness of breathing, when developed and cultivated in this way, is very fruitful and beneficial.

    एवं भाविताय खो, भिक्खवे, आनापानस्सतिया एवं बहुलीकताय सत्त फला सत्तानिसंसा पाटिकङ्खा। कतमे सत्त फला सत्तानिसंसा? दिट्ठेव धम्मे पटिकच्च अञ्ञं आराधेति; नो चे दिट्ठेव धम्मे पटिकच्च अञ्ञं आराधेति। अथ मरणकाले अञ्ञं आराधेति; नो चे दिट्ठेव धम्मे पटिकच्च अञ्ञं आराधेति, नो चे मरणकाले अञ्ञं आराधेति। अथ पञ्चन्नं ओरम्भागियानं संयोजनानं परिक्खया अन्तरापरिनिब्बायी होति … उपहच्चपरिनिब्बायी होति … असङ्खारपरिनिब्बायी होति … ससङ्खारपरिनिब्बायी होति … उद्धंसोतो होति अकनिट्ठगामी—एवं भाविताय खो, भिक्खवे, आनापानस्सतिया एवं बहुलीकताय इमे सत्त फला सत्तानिसंसा पाटिकङ्खा”ति।

    Evaṁ bhāvitāya kho, bhikkhave, ānāpānassatiyā evaṁ bahulīkatāya satta phalā sattānisaṁsā pāṭikaṅkhā. Katame satta phalā sattānisaṁsā? Diṭṭheva dhamme paṭikacca aññaṁ ārādheti; no ce diṭṭheva dhamme paṭikacca aññaṁ ārādheti. Atha maraṇakāle aññaṁ ārādheti; no ce diṭṭheva dhamme paṭikacca aññaṁ ārādheti, no ce maraṇakāle aññaṁ ārādheti. Atha pañcannaṁ orambhāgiyānaṁ saṁyojanānaṁ parikkhayā antarāparinibbāyī hoti … upahaccaparinibbāyī hoti … asaṅkhāraparinibbāyī hoti … sasaṅkhāraparinibbāyī hoti … uddhaṁsoto hoti akaniṭṭhagāmī—evaṁ bhāvitāya kho, bhikkhave, ānāpānassatiyā evaṁ bahulīkatāya ime satta phalā sattānisaṁsā pāṭikaṅkhā”ti.

    When mindfulness of breathing is developed and cultivated in this way you can expect seven fruits and benefits. What seven? You attain enlightenment early on in this very life. If not, you attain enlightenment at the time of death. If not, with the ending of the five lower fetters you’re extinguished in between one life and the next … you’re extinguished upon landing … you’re extinguished without extra effort … you’re extinguished with extra effort … you head upstream, going to the Akaniṭṭha realm … When mindfulness of breathing is developed and cultivated in this way you can expect these seven fruits and benefits.”
