“Katamo ca, bhikkhave, asaṅkhatagāmimaggo? Pañcindriyāni. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, asaṅkhatagāmimaggo …pe….

The Buddha teaches mendicants the unconditioned—defined as the ending of greed, hate, and delusion—and declares faculties to be the path that leads to the unconditioned, urging them to practice absorption without negligence.
SN 43.8 Faculties

“And what is the path that leads to the unconditioned?
Pañcindriyāni. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, asaṅkhatagāmimaggo …pe….
The five faculties. …”
Aṭṭhamaṁ.
