Saṁyutta Nikāya — The Connected Discourses

SN45: Connected Discourses on the Path

SN45:172 Bonds

1"Bhikkhus, there are these four bonds. What four? The bond of sensuality, the bond of existence, the bond of views, the bond of ignorance. These are the four bonds. This Noble Eightfold Path is to be developed for direct knowledge of these four bonds, for the full understanding of them, for their utter destruction, for their abandoning."

1"Cattārome, bhikkhave, yogā. Katame cattāro? Kāmayogo, bhavayogo, diṭṭhiyogo avijjāyogo – ime kho, bhikkhave, cattāro yogā. Imesaṁ kho, bhikkhave, catunnaṁ yogānaṁ abhiññāya pariññāya parikkhayāya pahānāya … pe … ayaṁ ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo bhāvetabbo"ti.

Dutiyaṁ.
