The Word of the Buddha Gradual Development of the Eightfold Path

The Word of the Buddha

The same path, in the order a disciple meets it. A Buddha appears. Someone hears the Dhamma and gains confidence, trains in virtue, becomes content, restrains the senses, clears the hindrances, and enters the absorptions. Insight, nibbāna, the sage at peace, and the true goal bring the training to its end.
