How to cite this document (a suggested style): "Cankama Sutta: Walking" (AN 5.29), translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu. Access to Insight (BCBS Edition), 17 February 2012, https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/an/an05/an05.029.than.html . Changes: Presentation only: original HTML markup reflowed into plain text; wording, numbering and source repetitions retained. No repetitions expanded. Completeness: ABBREVIATED. Every source-unit character is preserved, including introductions, notes and verse structure. Thanissaro's collection-level note explicitly states that repetitions were cut: https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/about.html. This is evidence about the translation method, not an assertion that every individual unit contains an omission; no repetitions reconstructed. These are the five rewards for one who practices walking meditation. Which five? He can endure traveling by foot; he can endure exertion; he becomes free from disease; whatever he has eaten & drunk, chewed & savored, becomes well-digested; the concentration he wins while doing walking meditation lasts for a long time. These are the five rewards for one who practices walking meditation.
