145 (1) The Noble Path
“Bhikkhus, I will teach you the noble path and the ignoble path.2160 Listen and attend closely…. And what, bhikkhus, is the ignoble path? Wrong view … and wrong liberation. This is called the ignoble path.
“And what, bhikkhus, is the noble path? Right view … and right liberation. This is called the noble path.”
146 (2) –154 (10) The Dark Path, Etc.
(146) “Bhikkhus, I will teach you the dark path and the bright path2161 … [245] … (147) … the good Dhamma and the bad Dhamma … (148) … the Dhamma of a good person and that of a bad person … (149) … the Dhamma to be aroused and the one not to be aroused … [246] … (150) … the Dhamma to be pursued and the one not to be pursued … (151) … the Dhamma to be developed and the one not to be developed … (152) … the Dhamma to be cultivated and the one not to be cultivated … [247] (153) … the Dhamma to be recollected and the one not to be recollected … (154) … the Dhamma to be realized and the one not to be realized….
“And what, bhikkhus, is the Dhamma not to be realized? Wrong view … and wrong liberation. This is called the Dhamma not to be realized.
“And what, bhikkhus, is the Dhamma to be realized? Right view … and right liberation. This is called the Dhamma to be realized.”
2160 I follow Ce, which unlike Be and Ee, does not include dhammaṃ in the sentence.
2161 I follow Be, which is consistent in putting the dark path before the bright path here and in 10:190. Ce and Ee put the bright path first here, but invert the sequence at 10:190. My title conforms to Be, whereas Ce has “The Bright Path” here but titles 10:190 “The Dark Path.”
