The 37 practices for attaining Nirvana 3

The seven enlightenment factors:
These are the seven practice factors that will take the practitioner to nirvana in the claim of the Agon sect of Buddhism from Japan. They are also practices performed in other sects of Buddhism that also lead towards enlightenment, though being regarded in a somewhat different manner. They are:

* the factor of discrimination of the Dharma (knowing right from wrong doctrine)
* the factor of striving (continual effort and avoidance of slackness within practice)
* the factor of joy (rejoicing in study and practice of the Dharma)
* the factor of tranquility (body and mind clarity and relaxation - equanimity)
* the factor of detachment (disconnection to karmicly controlled emotions and self-set thoughts)
* the factor of concentration (concentrated mind in both meditation and life)
* the factor of mindfulness (maintenance of focus on correct item/task/moment/matter)
