45. Maggasaṁyutta: On the Path

VIII. Abbreviated Texts on One Thing — SN45.90: Accomplishment in Proper Attention (2nd)

“… accomplishment in proper attention. A mendicant accomplished in proper attention can expect to develop and cultivate the noble eightfold path.

And how does a mendicant accomplished in proper attention develop and cultivate the noble eightfold path? It’s when a mendicant develops right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion, which culminate in the removal of greed, hate, and delusion. That’s how a mendicant accomplished in proper attention develops and cultivates the noble eightfold path.”

“Yathayidaṁ, bhikkhave, yonisomanasikārasampadā. Yonisomanasikārasampannassetaṁ, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno pāṭikaṅkhaṁ — ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāvessati, ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkarissati.

Kathañca, bhikkhave, bhikkhu yonisomanasikārasampanno ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāveti, ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkaroti? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu sammādiṭṭhiṁ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṁ dosavinayapariyosānaṁ mohavinayapariyosānaṁ … pe … sammāsamādhiṁ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṁ dosavinayapariyosānaṁ mohavinayapariyosānaṁ. Evaṁ kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu yonisomanasikārasampanno ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bhāveti, ariyaṁ aṭṭhaṅgikaṁ maggaṁ bahulīkarotī”ti.

Sattamaṁ.

Dutiyaekadhammapeyyālaṁ.

Tassuddānaṁ

Kalyāṇamittaṁ sīlañca,
chando ca attasampadā;
Diṭṭhi ca appamādo ca,
yoniso bhavati sattamaṁ.
