Notes
1.
Countless students over the centuries have invested their time and energy grappling with the question, "Is Enlightentment 'sudden' or is it 'gradual'?" These and other passages from the Canon make the Buddha's own view on the matter quite clear: The mind develops gradually, until it is ripe to make that sudden leap to Awakening.
