Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammāsambuddhassa

3.1.6 Walking the Path of Dhamma Uprightly1

This was explained in Sāvatthi.

“There are, Bhikkhus, eight Dhammas that are utterly pure and completely spotless, without any stain left on them and are undefiled. They have not arisen before and arise only then when the Vinaya of the Well-gone One exists.

What are these eight?

They are right view, ... and right concentration.

These are Bhikkhus, eight Dhammas that are utterly pure and completely spotless, without any stain left on them and are undefiled. They have not arisen before and arise only when the Vinaya of the Well-gone One exists.”
