Six kinds of renunciation equanimity:
The equanimity that arises when, experiencing the inconstancy of those very forms, their change, fading, and cessation, one sees with right discernment as it actually is that all forms, past or present, are inconstant, stressful, subject to change: This equanimity goes beyond form, which is why it is called renunciation equanimity.
(Similarly with the other senses)
(from Majjhima Nikaya 137)
