N: PTS 'The Buddha's Last Days', commentary to the
Mahaaparinibbaanasutta, translated by Yang-Gyu An.
CH VI, 7: <Achieve with vigilance: you should successfully perform
all your duties with no absence of mindfulness. Thus did the Blessed
One, while lying on his deathbed, give all the advice he had given
for forty-five years by putting it into the single word "vigilance".>
Footnote to vigilance gives the Pali: appamaada.

Nina.
