"Furthermore, there are three trainings: the higher training in śīla, the higher training in mind, and the higher training in wisdom. What is the higher training in śīla? If a bhikṣu fully upholds the prātimokṣa precepts, accomplishes deportment, regards light precepts with dread and awe as weighty as a vajra, and trains equally in all precepts—this is the higher training in śīla. What is the higher training in mind? If a bhikṣu is able to abandon desires and evil, up to entering the fourth dhyāna—this is the higher training in mind. What is the higher training in wisdom? If a bhikṣu knows in accordance with reality the truth of suffering, knows origin, cessation, and the path—this is the higher training in wisdom." (Rejoicing, hearing, cultivating, and upholding are the same as before.)
