Before mention the answer of Lord Samma Sambuddha, I will give a easiest way to remind this… it is like a puzzle and we can solve it through Lord Samma Sambuddha’s answer.
This also said by our greatest Lord Samma Sambuddha;
When someone follow 01 thing he will gain 3 things… when that 3 things complete he or she complete 4 things… by completing that 4 things… he or she gain 8 things… once that 8 things complete we gain 7 things… once that 7 things complete we achieved 01 thing!
Now let’s solve the puzzle!
Let’s solve this from end to beginning which is easier to understand and let me explain this with the answer given by Lord Samma Sambuddha!
Bhikku:
"My Lord, Can you please tell me the fastest way to achieve Nirvana?"
