sn50.1-12:1.1 “Mendicants, there are these five powers.

sn50.1-12:1.2 What five?

sn50.1-12:1.3 The powers of faith, energy, mindfulness, immersion, and wisdom.

sn50.1-12:1.4 These are the five powers.

sn50.1-12:1.5 The Ganges River slants, slopes, and inclines to the east.

sn50.1-12:1.6 In the same way, a mendicant who develops and cultivates the five powers slants, slopes, and inclines to extinguishment.

sn50.1-12:1.7 And how does a mendicant who develops the five powers slant, slope, and incline to extinguishment?

sn50.1-12:1.8 It’s when a mendicant develops the powers of faith,

sn50.1-12:1.9 energy,

sn50.1-12:1.10 mindfulness,

sn50.1-12:1.11 immersion,

sn50.1-12:1.12 and wisdom, which rely on seclusion, fading away, and cessation, and ripen as letting go.

sn50.1-12:1.13 That’s how a mendicant who develops and cultivates the five powers slants, slopes, and inclines to extinguishment.”
