ISM AND BUDDHISM
(A right believer) knows the condition of existence, cause of condition of existence, prevention of condition of existence, the means of prevention of condition of existence. There are three kinds of conditions of existence: (1) sexual enjoyment-condition of existence (all the conditions of sub-human, human, hellish and celestial till the state they have got sexual desire). (2) body-condition of existence (The sixteen Bralna lokas, where there are bodies but no sexual desire!. (3) bodiless-condition of existence (they are four where there is no gross body).
Grasping is the condition of existence ; prevention of grasping is the prevention of condition of existence. The means of prevention of condition of existence is the afore-said eight-fold path of liberation.
