“Pubbeva me, bhikkhave, sambodhā anabhisambuddhassa bodhisattasseva sato etadahosi:
“Mendicants, before my awakening—when I was still unawakened but intent on awakening—I thought:
‘ko nu kho rūpānaṁ assādo, ko ādīnavo, kiṁ nissaraṇaṁ?
‘What’s the gratification, the drawback, and the escape when it comes to sights …
Ko saddānaṁ …pe…

smells …

tastes …
ko phoṭṭhabbānaṁ …

and ideas?’ …”
Tassa mayhaṁ, bhikkhave, etadahosi:
