[88] "Uttiya, it is for the abandoning of these five cords of sensual pleasure (kāmaguṇa) that the Noble Eightfold Path (ariya aṭṭhaṅgika magga) is to be developed. And what is the Noble Eightfold Path? It is this: right view (sammādiṭṭhi) … right concentration (samādhi, sammāsamādhi). It is for the abandoning of these five cords of sensual pleasure, Uttiya, that the Noble Eightfold Path is to be developed." The Micchatta Vagga, the Third. Its summary (uddāna): Wrongness, the unwholesome dhamma, and also the two on the way of practice; two spoken with the untrue person, the pot, concentration, feeling, and the one with Uttiya. _____________ The Paṭipatti Vagga, the Fourth.
