<p class="p__0">In the later Theravada custom, samatha is considered as a preparation for vipassan, calming the mind and enhancing concentration in order for insight to develop, which results in freedom. Source is stated to have identified 2 paramount psychological qualities that occur from wholesome (training or advancement of the mind): Samatha, calm abiding, which steadies, makes up, combines and concentrates the mind; Vipassan, insight, which enables one to see, explore and recognize "developments" (conditioned phenomena based on the 5 aggregates).</p>

<p class="p__1">For example, in the Kimsuka Tree Sutta (SN 35. 245), the Buddha offers an elaborate metaphor in which peacefulness and insight are "the quick set of messengers" who provide the message of nibbana by means of the honorable eightfold path. In the Four Ways to Arahantship Sutta (AN 4. 170), Ven. nanda reports that people attain arahantship using calm abiding and insight in among three ways: They develop calm abiding and then insight (Pli: samatha-pubbangamam vipassanam) They establish insight and then calm abiding (Pli: vipassana-pubbangamam samatham) They develop calm abiding and insight in tandem (Pli: samatha-vipassanam yuganaddham), for instance, acquiring the first and then seeing in the associated aggregates the 3 marks of presence prior to proceeding to the 2nd jhna.</p>

<p class="p__2">As Thanissaro Bhikkhu writes, When [the Pli suttas] illustrate the Buddha telling his disciples to go meditate, they never ever quote him as saying 'go do vipassana,' but constantly 'go do jhana.' And they never ever correspond the word "vipassana" with any mindfulness strategies. In the couple of instances where they do discuss vipassana, they generally combine it with samatha not as two alternative techniques, but as 2 qualities of mind that a person may 'gain' or 'be enhanced with,' which ought to be established together.</p>
