[70]

[1][bodh] THUS have I heard:

Then the Exalted One addressed the monks,
saying:

"Monks."

"Yes, lord," replied those monks to the Exalted One.

The Exalted One said:

"I will teach you, monks,
the seven limbs of wisdom.

Do ye listen to it.

And what, monks, are the seven limbs of wisdom?

The limb of wisdom that is mindfulness,
the limb of wisdom that is Norm investigation,
the limb of wisdom that is energy,
the limb of wisdom that is zest,
the limb of wisdom that is tranquillity,
the limb of wisdom that is concentration,
the limb of wisdom that is equinimity.

These, monks, are the seven limbs of wisdom."
