29(9)Walking Meditation
"Bhikkhus,there are these five benefits of walking meditation.
What five?
[30]One becomes capable of journeys;one becomes capable of striving;one becomes healthy;what one has eaten,drunk,consumed,and tasted is properly digested;the concentration attained through walking meditation is long lasting.
Ciratthitiko hoti.Mp:“If one has acquired the mark [of concentration]while standing up,it is lost when one sits down.If one has acquired the mark while sitting,it is lost when one lies down:.But for one who has resolved on walking up and down and acquired the mark in a moving object,it is not lost even when one stands still,sits down,and lies down.”
These are the five benefits of walking meditation."
