[489] "Exerts" (padahati): Herein, what is right exertion (sammappadhāna)? That which is the mental arousal of energy (viriyārambha) … right effort (sammāvāyāma), the energy factor of awakening (vīriya-sambojjhaṅga), a factor of the path (maggaṅga), included in the path — this is called right exertion. The remaining phenomena (dhammā) are associated with right exertion.
