The
Noble 8-fold Way grows out of Morality!

The Blessed Buddha once
said:
Bhikkhus, even as any seed
and plant grows, increases, & expands, based
upon the earth,
established
upon earth, so too, similarly here, based upon
morality, established upon
morality,
does any Bhikkhu
develop and cultivate
the Noble 8-fold Way, and thereby he attains to growth,
to increase, to
expansion in all advantageous states. And how does a Bhikkhu do so?
Here, the
Bhikkhu develops:
Right View,
Right Motivation,
Right Speech,
Right Action,
Right Livelihood,
Right Effort,
Right Awareness,
and
Right Concentration,
all based upon
seclusion, disillusion, ceasing, and
culminating in release. It is in this way, that a Bhikkhu, based on morality,
established upon morality,
develops and
cultivates this Noble 8-fold Way,
and thereby he attains to growth, to
increase,
and to expansion in and
of
any advantageous mental state!
