This is a powerful teaching given by Venerable Sāriputta to the great lay disciple Anāthapiṇḍika as he lay dying, and in severe pain. Upon a request to visit him, Venerable Sāriputta provides a profound teaching, rarely offered to lay people, on non-attachment and non-grasping.  It is taken from the  Majjhima-nikāya: 143 - Translated by Bhante Sujato
