2. Vir±ga Sutta
Discourse on Absence of Attachment

     398. Bhikkhus, cultivating and practising many times the Four Methods of Steadfast Mindfulness, leads to certain disillusionment (with the five khandhas), to the abandonment of attachment, to the cessation of dukkha, to the achievement of calm through extinction of defilement, to the attainment of special apperception (i.e.. Magga Insight), to the realization of Four Ariya Truths and the realization of Nibb±na.

      What are the Four (Satipatth±nas)? Bhikkhus, in this Teaching, the bhikkhu keeps his mind steadfastly on the body, with diligence, comprehension and mindfulness, thus keeping away covetousness and distress in the five khandhas ...p... on Sensation ...p... on Mind ...p... on Mind-Objects, with diligence, comprehension and mindfulness, thus keeping away covetousness and distress in the five khandhas. Bhikkhus, these Four Methods of Steadfast Mindfulness, when cultivated and practised many times leads to certain disillusionment to the abandonment of attachment, to the cessation of dukkha, to the achievement of calm through extinction of defilement, to attainment of special apperception (i.e., Magga Insight), to the realization of Four Ariya Truths and the realization of Nibb±na.

End of the Vir±ga Sutta,

the second in this Vagga.
