Padīpopamasutta

Suttapiṭaka · Saṁyuttanikāya · Mahāvaggasaṁyutta · Vol. 19 · Section 1347

[1347] Bhikkhus, just as an oil lamp burns in dependence on oil and in dependence on a wick, and with the exhaustion of that very oil and wick, being without fuel, it would be extinguished — even so, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu, when feeling a feeling (vedanā) terminating with the body, understands: 'I feel a feeling terminating with the body'; when feeling a feeling terminating with life, understands: 'I feel a feeling terminating with life.' He understands: 'With the breaking up of the body, following the exhaustion of life, right here all that is felt, not being delighted in, will become cool.'
