Buddhist Holy Day Dhamma (20/04/2025)
Mendicants, with these seven factors as prerequisites,
right view comes first. And how does right view come first?
Right view gives rise to right thought. Right thought gives rise to right speech. Right speech gives rise to right action. Right action gives rise to right livelihood. Right livelihood gives rise to right effort. Right effort gives rise to right mindfulness. Right mindfulness gives rise to right immersion. Right immersion gives rise to right knowledge. Right knowledge gives rise to right freedom.
So the trainee has eight factors, while the perfected one has ten factors.”
