"Two things partake of supreme knowledge. What two? Tranquility and insight.
If tranquility is developed , what benefit does it bring? The mind becomes developed. And what is the benefit of a developed mind? All lust is abandoned.
If insight is developed, what benefit does it bring? Wisdom becomes developed. And what is the benefit of developed wisdom? All ignorance is abandoned.
A mind defiled by lust is not freed; and wisdom defiled by ignorance cannot develop. Thus, through the fading away of lust there is liberation of mind; and through the fading away of ignorance there is liberation by wisdom." ~ Buddha
