「云何八證法？謂八解脫：色觀色，一解脫。內無色想，觀外色，二解脫。淨解脫，三解脫。度色想，滅瞋恚想，住空處，四解脫。度空處，住識處，五解脫。度識處，住不用處，六解脫。度不用處，住有想無想處，七解脫。度有想無想處，住想知滅，八解脫。諸比丘！是為八十法，如實無虛，如來知已，平等說法。

“What are eight things to be realized? The eight liberations: Form observed to be form is the first liberation. Observing external form without an internal perception of form is the second liberation. The liberation of purity is the third liberation. Going beyond notions of form, ceasing notions of anger, and abiding in the abode of space is the fourth liberation. Going beyond the abode of space and abiding in the abode of consciousness is the fifth liberation. Going beyond the abode of consciousness and abiding in the abode of nothingness is the sixth liberation. Going beyond the abode of nothingness and abiding in the abode with and without conception is the seventh liberation. Going beyond the abode with and without conception and abiding in the cessation of concepts and perceptions is the eighth liberation.

“Monks, these eighty things are true and not false. They’ve been known by the Tathāgata who teaches the Dharma equally.
