“Bhikkhus, any bhikkhu or bhikkhunī who develops and frequently practices these five qualities can expect one of two results: either final |knowledge::enlightenment| in this very life or, if there is any |residual clinging for existence::remnant of grasping for renewed becoming [upādisesa]|, the state of |non-returning::third stage of awakening where the five lower fetters of personal existence view, doubt, adherence to rules and observances, sensual desire, and ill-will are permanently dropped [anāgāmitā]|.
What are these five?
Here, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu develops the basis of psychic ability that is endowed with |collectedness::stability of mind, stillness of mind, mental composure [samādhi]| arising from |aspiration::a goal, an interest, an objective, i.e. a wholesome motivation [chanda]| and accompanied by intentional effort,
develops the basis of psychic ability that is endowed with collectedness arising from energy and accompanied by intentional effort,
develops the basis of psychic ability that is endowed with collectedness arising from |[purification of] mind::purification of heart [citta]| and active effort and accompanied by intentional effort,
develops the basis of psychic ability that is endowed with collectedness arising from |investigation::consideration, reflection, and examination [vīmaṃsā]| and accompanied by intentional effort,
enthusiasm itself makes the fifth.
Bhikkhus, any bhikkhu or bhikkhunī who develops and frequently practices these five qualities can expect one of two results: either final knowledge in this very life or, if there is any residual clinging for existence, the state of non-returning.”
