What three? The faculty of understanding that enlightenment is imminent. The faculty of enlightenment. The faculty of one who is enlightened. These are the three faculties.\u201d The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: \u201cAs a trainee trains, following the straight road, first they know about ending; enlightenment follows without delay. Then the knowledge comes to such a one, freed through enlightenment, with the end of the fetters of continued existence: \u2018My freedom is unshakable.\u2019 Accomplished in the faculties, peaceful, in love with the state of peace, they bear their final body, having vanquished M\u0101ra with his legions.\u201d This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.","title":"Faculties","tradition":"Khuddaka Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":137}
