The Second Discourse on the Triad of Training

91.More DetailsCommentaries "There are these three trainings, monks. Which three? The training in higher morality, the training in higher consciousness, the training in higher wisdom.

"And what, monks, is the training in higher morality? Here, monks, a monk is virtuous, etc. having accepted the training rules he trains in them. This is called, monks, the training in higher morality.

"And what, monks, is the training in higher consciousness? Here, monks, a monk, quite secluded from sensual pleasures, etc. he enters upon and dwells in the fourth meditative absorption. This is called, monks, the training in higher consciousness.

"And what, monks, is the training in higher wisdom? Here, monks, a monk, through the elimination of the mental corruptions, realised by his own direct knowledge, in this very life, the liberation of mind and the liberation by wisdom that are free from mental corruptions and, having entered upon them, dwells in them. This is called, monks, the training in higher wisdom. These, monks, are the three trainings."

"Higher morality, higher consciousness, and higher wisdom, the energetic one;

Steadfast, resolute, a meditator, mindful with guarded faculties, should wander.

"As before so after, as after so before;

As below so above, as above so below.

"As by day so by night, as by night so by day;

Having overcome all directions, with limitless concentration.

"Him they call a trainee in practice, and also of purified conduct;

Him they call in the world the Perfectly Enlightened One, wise, one who has reached the end of practice.

"With the cessation of consciousness, for one liberated through the elimination of craving;

Like the extinguishing of a lamp, there is deliverance of the mind." The tenth.
