Chapters 23 The role of good factors
"Furthermore, Subhūti, this state is equal, have neither high or low. Therefore it is called peerless perfect enlightenment. When one, not abiding in the notions of self, person, sentient being, and lifespan, cultivates all kinds of good factors, then one attains peerless perfect enlightenment. Subhūti, the Tathāgata says that these so-called 'good factors' are not good factors. Therefore they are called good factors."
