# Quittance of Illusion 4

[504.1] Thus have I heard:

Once the Exalted One dwelt near Sāvatthī;
and there he addressed the monks, saying:

"Monks."

'Yes, lord,' they replied;
and the Exalted One said:

''Monks, for the quittance of illusion
five things ought to be made to become.

What five?

The governance by faith,
the governance by energy,
the governance by mindfulness,
the governance by concentration
the governance by insight.

Verily, monks, for the quittance of illusion
these five things ought to be made to become.'
