Dhammanussati Bhavana, recollection of the qualities of the Dhamma
“Mahanama, when a noble disciple has reached the fruit and understood the instructions they frequently practice this kind of meditation.
...... A noble disciple recollects the teaching: ‘The teaching is well explained by the Buddha (Svakkhato) —apparent in the present life (Sanditthiko), immediately effective (Akaliko), inviting inspection (Ehipassiko), relevant, so that sensible people can know it for themselves (Opanayiko).’ When a noble disciple recollects the teaching their mind is not full of greed, hate, and delusion. … This is called a noble disciple who lives in balance among people who are unbalanced, and lives untroubled among people who are troubled. They’ve entered the stream of the teaching and develop the recollection of the teaching.

9. Hamsàdiccapathe yanti

THE WISE SEEK AN ESCAPE FROM THIS WORLD
9. Swans wing along on the path of the sun. (Men) go through air by psychic powers, 9 The wise are led away from the world, 10 having conquered Màra and his host. 11 175.
Story
Some monks came to see the Buddha and, hearing the Dhamma attained Arahantship with psychic powers. Later, they departed flying through the air. The Venerable Ananda, who had seen them coming, noticed their absence and inquired of the Buddha where they had gone. Just at that moment some swans flew through the air. Then the Buddha remarked that Arahants, who possess psychic powers, go through the air like swans.

Kammā Vācanā: Asking for Forgiveness
Kāyena vācā cittena, pamādena mayā kataṁ
Accayaṁ khama me bhante, Bhūri-pañña tathāgata
Kāyena vācā cittena, pamādena mayā kataṁ
Accayaṁ khama me dhamma, Sanditthika akālika.
Kāyena vācā cittena, pamādena mayā kataṁ
Accayaṁ khama me saṅgha, puññak-kettaṁ anuttara.
If, due to negligence, I have done some wrong, by body, speech, or mind,
Forgive me of that offense, O Bhante, perfect One of vast wisdom.
If, due to negligence, I have done some wrong, by body, speech, or mind,
Forgive me of that offense, O Dhamma, visible and unaffected by time.
If, due to negligence, I have done some wrong, by body, speech, or mind,
Forgive me of that offense, O Sangha, supreme field of merit.

Visuddhimagga — The Path of Purification: The Classic Manual of Buddhist Doctrine and Meditation (Third revised online edition)
By Bhikkhu Naṇamoli
The Visuddhimagga—here rendered Path of Purification—is perhaps unique in the literature of the world. It systematically summarizes and interprets the teaching of the Buddha contained in the Pali Tipitaka, which is now recognized in Europe as the oldest and most authentic record of the Buddha’s words. As the principal non-canonical authority of the Theravada, it forms the hub of a complete and coherent method of exegesis of the Tipitaka, using the “Abhidhamma method” as it is called. And it sets out detailed practical instructions for developing purification of mind.
