The Discourse on the Higher Fetters
311.
At Sāvatthī.
"There are, monks, these five higher mental fetters.
Which five?
Lust for fine-material-sphere existence, lust for immaterial-sphere existence, conceit, restlessness, ignorance -
these, monks, are the five higher mental fetters.
For the direct knowledge, full understanding, utter elimination, and abandoning of these five higher mental fetters, monks, the seven factors of enlightenment are to be developed.
Which seven?
Here, monks, a monk develops the enlightenment factor of mindfulness, based upon seclusion, based upon dispassion, based upon cessation, maturing in release, etc.
he develops the enlightenment factor of equanimity, with the removal of lust as its final goal, with the removal of hate as its final goal, with the removal of delusion as its final goal,
grounded upon the Deathless, heading for the Deathless, with the Deathless as its final goal,
slanting towards Nibbāna, sloping towards Nibbāna, inclining towards Nibbāna.
For the direct knowledge, full understanding, utter elimination, and abandoning of these five higher mental fetters, monks, a monk should develop these seven factors of enlightenment."
