[592] The five-factored path (pañcaṅgika magga): Right View (sammādiṭṭhi), Right Thought (sammāsaṅkappa), Right Effort (sammāvāyāma), Right Mindfulness (sammāsati), Right Concentration (sammāsamādhi). Therein, which is the five-factored path? Here a bhikkhu, on whatever occasion he develops the supramundane jhāna (lokuttara jhāna)—leading out [of the round], tending to dispersal—for the abandoning of views (diṭṭhigata), for the attainment of the first stage (bhūmi): quite secluded from sensual pleasures, … he enters upon and dwells in the first jhāna, of painful practice and sluggish direct knowledge (dukkhāpaṭipadaṃ dandhābhiññaṃ)—on that occasion there is contact (phassa) … there is non-distraction (avikkhepa). These phenomena (dhammā) are wholesome (kusala). Through the having been done, the having been developed, of that same supramundane wholesome jhāna, quite secluded from sensual pleasures, … he enters upon and dwells in the first jhāna—[its] result (vipāka)—of painful practice and sluggish direct knowledge, emptiness (suññata): on that occasion there is the five-factored path: Right View, Right Thought, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration. This is called the five-factored path. The remaining phenomena are associated (sampayutta) with the five-factored path.
