Aṅguttara Nikāya - The Numerical Discourses

9: The Book of the Nines

X. Abbreviated Texts Beginning with Greed — AN 9.93:

1“For insight into greed, nine things should be developed. What nine? The perceptions of ugliness, death, repulsiveness of food, dissatisfaction with the whole world, impermanence, suffering in impermanence, not-self in suffering, giving up, and fading away. For insight into greed, these nine things should be developed.”
