buddhism is already radical, so budda wants to end suffering, and he analyses every aspect of what he experiences and try to find sth which is not suffering and even sth not tainted by suffering. as soon as something is tainted by suffering, it is thrown way and must be avoided at all cost. he does that over and over and over until he finds the condition for suffering to rise and for suffering to cease. at this point knowledge is introduced because it turns out it's crucial to end suffering. the special knowledge triggers dispassion from what is tainted by suffering and suffering ends forever: > in this way, dispassion has knowledge & vision of release as its purpose, knowledge & vision of release as its reward. disenchantment has dispassion as its purpose, dispassion as its reward. knowledge & vision of things as they actually are has disenchantment as its purpose, disenchantment as its reward. concentration has knowledge & vision of things as they actually are as its purpose, knowledge & vision of things as they actually are as its reward. pleasure has concentration as its purpose, concentration as its reward. serenity has pleasure as its purpose, pleasure as its reward. rapture has serenity as its purpose, serenity as its reward. joy has rapture as its purpose, rapture as its reward. freedom from remorse has joy as its purpose, joy as its reward. skillful virtues have freedom from remorse as their purpose, freedom from remorse as their reward.   a/an/an11/an11.002.than.html
