These five things should often be contemplated by both women and men, by both householder and home leaver:
(1) Old age can come to me; I have not got beyond old age.
(2) Sickness can come to me: I have not got beyond sickness.
(3) Death can come to me; I have not got beyond death.
(4) I must be separated and parted from all that is dear and beloved to me.
(5) I am the result of my own deeds, the heir to deeds - deeds are the source, the kin and the foundation.
Whatever deed I do, whether good or bad, I shall become heir to that.
