[Zen] The 7 Links to Awakening ... !!!

[Bhikkhu Samahita]

Friends:            What are the Seven Links to Awakening ? Awareness is a link to Awakening (sati-sambojjhanga). Investigation of the states is a link to Awakening (vicaya). Energy is a link to Awakening (viriya-sambojjhanga). Joy is a link to Awakening (pīti-sambojjhanga). Tranquillity is a link to Awakening (passaddhi-sambojjhanga). Concentration is a link to Awakening (samādhi-sambojjhanga). Equanimity is a link to Awakening (upekkhā-sambojjhanga). These are the seven links leading to final Enlightenment... Whose minds are well-developed in the factors of self-awakening, who delight in non-clinging, relinquishing all grasping,     radiant, beaming & shining,     fermentations all ended:     they, in this world,     are Unbound here!
