Aṅguttara Nikāya - The Numerical Discourses

1: The Book of the Ones

586–590

"Bhikkhus, when one thing is developed and cultivated, (586) ignorance is abandoned … (587) true knowledge arises … (588) the conceit ‘I am’ is abandoned … (589) the underlying tendencies are uprooted … (590) the fetters are abandoned. What is that one thing? Mindfulness directed to the body. When this one thing is developed and cultivated, ignorance is abandoned … true knowledge arises … the conceit ‘I am’ is abandoned … the underlying tendencies are uprooted … the fetters are abandoned."
