�Perception, monks, is not self. And if perception
were self, monks, then perception would not be
conducive to disease, and one could have it of
perception: �May my perception be thus, may my
perception be not thus�. But since, monks, perception
is not self, then perception is conducive to disease,

perception be thus, may my perception be not thus��.
