When the self is alone, this is said to be the attainment of liberation
Restraint for the sake of freedom from remorse
freedom from remorse for the sake of joy
joy for the sake of rapture
rapture for the sake of tranquility
tranquility for the sake of pleasure
pleasure for the sake of concentration
concentration for the sake of knowledge and vision of things as they are
knowledge of things as they are for the sake of disenchantment
disenchantment for the sake of release
release for the sake of knowledge and vision of release
knowledge and vision of release for the sake of total unbinding without clinging – Vinaya Pitaka, book 5
