The Buddha contrasts ten things that, when developed and cultivated within the Holy One's training, lead to disillusionment, dispassion, and the ending of greed, hate, and delusion with those that do not.
“Dasayime, bhikkhave, dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā ekantanibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattanti, nāññatra sugatavinayā. Katame dasa? Sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāvimutti— ime kho, bhikkhave, dasa dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā ekantanibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattanti, nāññatra sugatavinayā”ti.
Navamaṁ.
Reference Translation by Bhikkhu Sujato (CC0).
“Dasayime, bhikkhave, dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā ekantanibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattanti, nāññatra sugatavinayā.
“Mendicants, these ten things when developed and cultivated don’t lead solely to disillusionment, dispassion, cessation, peace, insight, awakening, and extinguishment apart from the Holy One’s training.
Katame dasa?
What ten?
Sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāvimutti—
Right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right immersion, right knowledge, and right freedom.
ime kho, bhikkhave, dasa dhammā bhāvitā bahulīkatā ekantanibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya upasamāya abhiññāya sambodhāya nibbānāya saṁvattanti, nāññatra sugatavinayā”ti.
These are the ten things that when developed and cultivated don’t lead solely to disillusionment, dispassion, cessation, peace, insight, awakening, and extinguishment apart from the Holy One’s training.”
Navamaṁ.
