1: The Book of the Ones

1"Bhikkhus, one thing, when developed and cultivated, (591) leads to differentiation by wisdom … (592) leads to nibbāna through non-clinging.[n.211] Mp glosses paññāpabhedāya with paññāya pabhedagamanatthaṁ. At Paṭis-a III 644,6–7, paññāpabhedakusalo is glossed "skilled in his own infinite distinctions" (attano anantavikappe … cheko). Its near synonym, pabhinnañāṇo, is explained as "having knowledge that has attained infinite differentiations" (anantappabhedapattañāṇo). Mp glosses anupādāparinibbāna with apaccayaparinibbānassa sacchikiriyatthāya, "for the purpose of realizing the non-conditioned final nibbāna." What is that one thing? Mindfulness directed to the body. This is the one thing that, when developed and cultivated, leads to differentiation by wisdom … leads to nibbāna through non-clinging."
