Friends:

When is the Way to the Deathless element Opened?

The Blessed Buddha once said:
Bhikkhus and friends, these 8 things, purified, cleansed, immaculate,
free from distortion, elegant and sophisticated, if not arisen do not
arise at all except from the appearance of a Tathagata, an Arahat, a
Perfectly Enlightened One, or outside a Well-Gone-One’s Discipline!
What eight? 

Right View  (sammā-ditthi)
Right Motivation  (sammā-sankappa)
Right Speech  (sammā-vācā)
Right Action  (sammā-kammanta)
Right Livelihood  (sammā-ājīva)
Right Effort  (sammā-vāyāma)
Right Awareness  (sammā-sati)
Right Concentration  (sammā-samādhi)

These 8 things, purified, cleared, faultless, unaltered and not decayed,
advanced and refined, if not emerged do not appear, except when a
Thus-Come-Thus-Gone One, a Worthy One, a Perfectly Self-Awakened One
arise, except for when the Method of Training of a Well-Gone One is well
established…Just these 8 Things…

Rare is emergence of this fine path & method!
