「又有五成法、五修法、五覺法、五滅法、五證法。云何五成法?謂五滅盡支:一者信佛、如來、至真,十號具足。二者無病,身常安隱。三者質直無有諛諂,真趣如來涅槃徑路。四者專心不亂,諷誦不忘。五者善於觀察法之起滅,以賢聖行盡於苦本。云何五修法?謂五根:信根、精進根、念根、定根、慧根。云何五覺法?謂五受陰:色受陰,受、想、行、識受陰。云何五滅法?謂五蓋:貪欲蓋、瞋恚蓋、睡眠蓋、掉戱蓋、疑蓋。云何五證法?謂五無學聚:無學戒聚、無學定聚、慧聚、解脫聚、解脫知見聚。
“There are also five things to be achieved, five things to be cultivated, five things to be recognized, five things to be ceased, and five things to be realized.
“What are five things to be achieved? The five factors of complete cessation: First is faith in the Buddha, Tathāgata, and Arhat who perfected the ten epithets. Second is having no illness and being at peace. Third is being honest and having no deception about heading straight down the Tathāgata’s road to Nirvāṇa. Fourth is mental focus that’s not confused and doesn’t forget the recitations. Fifth is skill in investigating the arising and cessation of things and ending the root of suffering with the noble practice.
“What are five things to be cultivated? The five faculties: faculty of faith, faculty of effort, faculty of mindfulness, faculty of samādhi, and faculty of wisdom.
“What are five things to be recognized? The five acquired aggregates: the acquired aggregate of form … feeling … conception … volition … the acquired aggregate of consciousness.
“What are five things to be ceased? The five hindrances: The hindrance of greed, hindrance of anger, hindrance of drowsiness, hindrance of restlessness, and hindrance of doubt.
“What are five things to be realized? The five collections of the adept: the adept’s collection of precepts, collection of samādhi, collection of wisdom, collection of liberation, and collection of the knowing and seeing of liberation.
