“Mendicants, form of the past and future is suffering, “Rūpaṁ, bhikkhave, dukkhaṁ atītānāgataṁ; let alone the present. ko pana vādo paccuppannassa.
Seeing this, a learned noble disciple is not concerned with past form, Evaṁ passaṁ, bhikkhave, sutavā ariyasāvako atītasmiṁ rūpasmiṁ anapekkho hoti; doesn’t look forward to enjoying future form, anāgataṁ rūpaṁ nābhinandati; and they practice for disillusionment, dispassion, and cessation regarding present form. paccuppannassa rūpassa nibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya paṭipanno hoti.
Feeling … Vedanā dukkhā …
Perception … saññā dukkhā …
Choices … saṅkhārā dukkhā …
