[450] When this was said, the Venerable Udāyi said to the Blessed One: "Venerable sir, how are the seven factors of awakening (bojjhaṅga) developed, how are they cultivated, so that they lead to the destruction of craving (taṇhā)?" "Here, Udāyi, a bhikkhu develops the mindfulness factor of awakening (satisambojjhaṅga), dependent on seclusion (viveka), dependent on dispassion (virāga), dependent on cessation (nirodha), vast, exalted (mahaggata), measureless, free from affliction (abyāpajjha). As he develops the mindfulness factor of awakening — dependent on seclusion, dependent on dispassion, dependent on cessation, vast, exalted, measureless, free from affliction — craving is abandoned. … He develops the equanimity factor of awakening (upekkhāsambojjhaṅga), dependent on seclusion, dependent on dispassion, dependent on cessation, vast, exalted, measureless, free from affliction. As he develops the equanimity factor of awakening — dependent on seclusion, dependent on dispassion, dependent on cessation, vast, exalted, measureless, free from affliction — craving is abandoned. With the abandoning of craving, kamma is abandoned; with the abandoning of kamma, suffering (dukkha) is abandoned. Thus indeed, Udāyi, with the destruction of craving comes the destruction of kamma; with the destruction of kamma comes the destruction of suffering."
