THE PATH OF NIRVANA OR LIBERATION 109
.“ (A right-believer) know's the grasping, the cause of grasping, the prevention of grasping, the means of prevention of grasping. Graspings are four: (1) grasping of sense-desires (2) grasping of speculative opinion (3) grasping in rules and rituals (4) grasping in theory of the self. (wrong view of the self taking the non-self to be the self).
Desire is the cause of grasping. Cessation of desire is the prevention of grasping. The means of the prevention of grasping is the eight-fold path of liberation.”
