<p class="p__0">In the later Theravada custom, samatha is considered as a preparation for vipassan, pacifying the mind and enhancing concentration in order for insight to emerge, which results in freedom. The Buddha is stated to have actually recognized 2 paramount mental qualities that emerge from wholesome (training or advancement of the mind): Samatha, calm abiding, which steadies, makes up, merges and concentrates the mind; Vipassan, insight, which enables one to see, check out and discern "developments" (conditioned phenomena based upon the 5 aggregates).</p>

<p class="p__1">For example, in the Kimsuka Tree Sutta (SN 35. 245), the Buddha supplies a sophisticated metaphor in which peacefulness and insight are "the swift pair of messengers" who provide the message of nibbana via the noble eightfold path. In the Four Ways to Arahantship Sutta (AN 4. 170), Ven. nanda reports that people achieve arahantship using calm abiding and insight in among 3 ways: They develop calm abiding and after that 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 example, acquiring the first and then seeing in the associated aggregates the three marks of existence prior to proceeding to the second jhna.</p>

<p class="p__2">As Thanissaro Bhikkhu writes, When [the Pli suttas] portray the Buddha telling his disciples to go meditate, they never ever estimate him as stating 'go do vipassana,' but always 'go do jhana.' And they never equate the word "vipassana" with any mindfulness methods. In Mindful Meditation of circumstances where they do discuss vipassana, they generally combine it with samatha not as 2 alternative methods, but as 2 qualities of mind that an individual may 'gain' or 'be enhanced with,' and that ought to be established together.</p>
