The PathMaggaṅgasutta

“And what is the path that leads to the unconditioned?“Katamo ca, bhikkhave, asaṅkhatagāmimaggo? The noble eightfold path.Ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo. This is called the path that leads to the unconditioned.Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, asaṅkhatagāmimaggo.

So, mendicants, I’ve taught you the unconditioned and the path that leads to the unconditioned.Iti kho, bhikkhave, desitaṁ vo mayā asaṅkhataṁ, desito asaṅkhatagāmimaggo. Out of sympathy, I’ve done what a teacher should do who wants what’s best for their disciples.Yaṁ, bhikkhave, satthārā karaṇīyaṁ sāvakānaṁ hitesinā anukampakena anukampaṁ upādāya kataṁ vo taṁ mayā. Here are these roots of trees, and here are these empty huts. Practice absorption, mendicants! Don’t be negligent! Don’t regret it later! This is my instruction to you.”Etāni, bhikkhave, rukkhamūlāni, etāni suññāgārāni. Jhāyatha, bhikkhave, mā pamādattha; mā pacchā vippaṭisārino ahuvattha. Ayaṁ vo amhākaṁ anusāsanī”ti.
