At the Eastern Monastery (4th)

The same setting.
“Mendicants, how many faculties must a mendicant develop and cultivate so that they can declare enlightenment:
‘I understand: “Rebirth is ended, the spiritual journey has been completed, what had to be done has been done, there is no return to any state of existence”’?”
“Our teachings are rooted in the Buddha. …”
“A mendicant must develop and cultivate five faculties so that they can declare enlightenment.

What five?
The faculties of faith, energy, mindfulness, immersion, and wisdom.

‘I understand: “Rebirth is ended, the spiritual journey has been completed, what had to be done has been done, there is no return to any state of existence”’.”
