The Discourse on Going to the Far Shore

198.More DetailsCommentaries "Monks, these seven factors of enlightenment, when developed and cultivated, lead to going from the near shore to the far shore. Which seven? The enlightenment factor of mindfulness, etc. the enlightenment factor of equanimity - these, monks, are the seven factors of enlightenment which, when developed and cultivated, lead to going from the near shore to the far shore."

"Few are those among human beings, those people going to the far shore;

And this other generation just runs along the shore.

"But those who practise in accordance with the Teaching, in the Teaching well proclaimed;

Those people will go beyond, the realm of Death so hard to cross.

"Having abandoned the dark phenomenon, the wise one should develop the bright;

Having come from home to homelessness, in seclusion where delight is hard.

"There one should wish for delight, having abandoned sensual pleasures, one who owns nothing;

The wise one should purify oneself of the mental defilements of the mind.

"Those whose minds are rightly well developed in the factors of enlightenment;

Who delight in the relinquishment of grasping, by non-clinging;

Those who have eliminated the mental corruptions, brilliant, they are quenched in the world." The seventh.
