"Bhikkhus, if five things do not slip away from a frail and sick bhikkhu, it can be expected of him: In no long time, with the destruction of the taints, he will realize for himself with direct knowledge, in this very life, the taintless liberation of mind, liberation by wisdom, and having entered upon it, he will dwell in it.
What five?
* Here, a bhikkhu dwells contemplating the unattractiveness of the body, perceiving the repulsiveness of food,
* Perceiving non-delight in the entire world,
* Contemplating impermanence in all conditioned phenomena, and
* He has the perception of death well established internally.
If these five things do not slip away from a frail and sick bhikkhu, it can be expected of him: 'In no long time, with the destruction of the taints, he will realize for himself with direct knowledge, in this very life, the taintless liberation of mind, liberation by wisdom, and having entered upon it, he will dwell in it."
