[392] **"He does not sorrow over what is past"** (atītaṃ nānusocati): he does not sorrow over an object (vatthu) that has changed, nor does he sorrow when an object has undergone change. He does not sorrow, thinking, "My eye has changed"; he does not sorrow, thinking, "My ear has changed... my nose... my tongue... my body... my forms... my sounds... my smells... my tastes... my tangible objects... my family... my group... my dwelling... my gain... my fame... my praise... my happiness (sukha)... my robes... my almsfood... my lodging... my medicinal requisites for the sick... my mother... my father... my brother... my sister... my son... my daughter... my friends and companions... my kinsmen... my blood relations have changed" — he does not sorrow, does not grow weary, does not lament, does not beat his breast and wail, does not fall into confusion. Thus, "he does not sorrow over what is past."
