1"Bhikkhus, there are these five lower fetters.[n.49] These are the fetters that bind beings to the sense-sphere realm (kāmadhātu). The first three are eradicated by the stream-enterer and the once-returner, all five by the nonreturner. What five?
Identity view,
doubt,
the distorted grasp of rules and vows,
sensual desire,
ill will.
These are the five lower fetters.

The Noble Eightfold Path is to be developed
- for direct knowledge of these five lower fetters,
- for the full understanding of them,
- for their utter destruction,
- for their abandoning.

What Noble Eightfold Path?
Here, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu develops right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration,
- which is based upon seclusion, dispassion, and cessation, maturing in release;
- which has as its final goal the removal of lust, the removal of hatred, the removal of delusion;
- which has the Deathless as its ground, the Deathless as its destination, the Deathless as its final goal;
- which slants, slopes, and inclines towards Nibbāna.

This Noble Eightfold Path is to be developed
- for direct knowledge of these five lower fetters,
- for the full understanding of them,
- for their utter destruction,
- for their abandoning."
