There is a universal condition which I have penetrated and realized. Having realized it, I can now declare it, teach it, and define it, opening it up for all to understand. What is this world condition? Body is the world condition. And with body and form goes feeling, perception, consciousness, and all the activities throughout the world. The arising of form and the ceasing of form--everything that has been heard, sensed, and known, sought after and reached by the mind--all this is the embodied world, to be penetrated and realized.

- Samyutta Nikaya
