[1577] "And what is the noble method (ñāya) that he has clearly seen and thoroughly penetrated with wisdom (paññā)? Here, householder, a noble disciple (ariyasāvaka) attends carefully and wisely (yoniso manasikāra) to dependent origination (paṭiccasamuppāda) itself thus: 'When this exists, that comes to be; with the arising of this, that arises. When this does not exist, that does not come to be; with the cessation of this, that ceases.' That is: with ignorance as condition, volitional formations [come to be]; with volitional formations as condition, consciousness … Such is the origin of this whole mass of suffering (dukkha). But with the remainderless fading away and cessation of ignorance comes the cessation of volitional formations … Such is the cessation of this whole mass of suffering. This is the noble method that he has clearly seen and thoroughly penetrated with wisdom."
