every occurrence of 16APS anapana sati meditation in the EBT


I've got most of covered already here,

✅EBT 16 APS

šŸ”—šŸ”Š ~5min pāli šŸŽ™️Ven. Jiv. šŸ”—šŸ”Š 1 file 
SN 54 Ānāpāna Saį¹ƒyutta: contains 20 suttas on the topic. This is the definitive 16 APS, and you should study these 20 suttas, in order, before reading MN 118, which is just a slightly embellished version of the SN 54 ananda suttas. 
MN 62 : This sutta is particularly illuminating, it shows how 16 APS is combined with other meditation techniques simultaneously, such as 4 elements. 
MN 118 : This is probably the sutta people study most, and that's not a good idea. Instead, you should first master SN 46.3 , then SN 54.3 and SN 54.2 . MN 118 is just a combination of those 3 suttas, but it will be far easier to understand how it fits together if you study those 3 independently and understand them on their own terms. In particular, the ideas of SN 54.2 will not occur to you if you read MN 118 in isolation. 


Now to hunt down the rest...

♦ 85. vuttaƱhetaį¹ƒ bhagavatā, vuttamarahatāti me sutaį¹ƒ --
§85. This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard: “Remain focused, monks, on foulness in the body. Have mindfulness of in-&-out breathing well-established to the fore within you. Remain focused on the inconstancy of all fabrications. For one who remains focused on the foulness of the body, the obsession with passion for the property of beauty is abandoned. For one who has mindfulness of in-&-out breathing well-established to the fore within oneself, annoying external thoughts & inclinations don’t exist. For one who remains focused on the inconstancy of all fabrications, ignorance is abandoned, clear knowing arises.”
Focusing on foulness
♦ “asubhānupassÄ«, bhikkhave, kāyasmiį¹ƒ viharatha; ānāpānassati ca vo ajjhattaį¹ƒ parimukhaį¹ƒ sÅ«paį¹­į¹­hitā hotu; sabbasaį¹…khāresu aniccānupassino viharatha. asubhānupassÄ«naį¹ƒ, bhikkhave, kāyasmiį¹ƒ viharataį¹ƒ yo subhāya dhātuyā rāgānusayo so pahÄ«yati VAR . ānāpānassatiyā ajjhattaį¹ƒ parimukhaį¹ƒ sÅ«paį¹­į¹­hititāya ye bāhirā vitakkāsayā vighātapakkhikā, te na honti. sabbasaį¹…khāresu aniccānupassÄ«naį¹ƒ viharataį¹ƒ yā avijjā sā pahÄ«yati, yā vijjā sā uppajjatÄ«”ti. etamatthaį¹ƒ bhagavā avoca. tatthetaį¹ƒ iti vuccati —

A master of direct knowing,
at peace,
he is a sage
gone beyond bonds.

What's missing?

the satipatthana sutta references, which don't reference the keyword "anapana", but instead only describes the first four steps:

MN 10
DN 22
MN 119 kayagatasati sutta

Anything else?
