The First Discourse on Brahmanhood
37.
At Sāvatthī.
"I will teach you, monks, being committed to holy life and the fruits of being committed to holy life.
Listen to that.
And what, monks, is being committed to holy life?
It is just this noble eightfold path, as follows -
right view, etc.
right concentration.
This is called, monks, being committed to holy life.
And what, monks, are the fruits of being committed to holy life?
The fruition of stream-entry, the fruition of once-returning, the fruition of non-returning, the fruition of arahantship -
these are called, monks, the fruits of being committed to holy life."
The seventh.
