All
the teachings of the Blessed One converge on one objective – to
gain emancipation from all suffering. We shall gain
emancipation from suffering when we are fully enlightened
to the four Noble Truths.
In order to be fully enlightened
to the Noble Truths, we must fully develop the thirty-seven
components of enlightenment known as Bodhipakkhiya.
We can achieve this goal by treading ardently and strenuously
on the Eightfold Noble Path.
This book deals with the fundamental essentials and practical
aspects of the Training of Morality and the Training of Concentration.
