5 Themes for Awakening ~ Teaching of the Buddha ~ Pali Buddhism
A reading for meditation of the Upajjhaṭṭhana Sutta (AN 5:57) ~ Subjects for Contemplation - Translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi.
The Upajjhatthana Sutta ("Subjects for Contemplation") focuses on the five remembrances, or five facts, regarding life's fragility and our true inheritance. The discourse advises that these facts are to be reflected upon often by all.
Contemplation of these facts leads to the abandonment of destructive attachments and actions and to the cultivation of factors necessary for Awakening. The first three remembrances are the very insights that led Gautama Buddha to renounce his royal household status and become an ascetic after experiencing strong feelings of spiritual urgency (saṃvega).
