Friends, how does one cut the 5 minor mental chains of:

1:	Identity and personality belief.
2:	Skeptical doubt in Buddha's Awakening.
3:	Superstitious clinging to rule & ritual.
4:	Greed, desire, lust and attraction.
5:	Hate, anger, irritation & aversion.

The Blessed Buddha once explained:
In whatever situation or mental state one enters, whether high or low,
whether fine or foul, whether subtle or gross, whether far or near,
one knows, notes, reflects and remembers the facts exactly like this:
'Whatsoever herein is form, feeling, experience, mental construction, &
bare consciousness, all this is impermanent, transient, passing, unstable,
decaying, and vanishing; all this is miserable, painful, ill, a thorn, a tumor,
a disaster, a torture, and a burning pit; all this is remote, alien, impersonal,
ownerless, void of stable substance & keepable entity, completely empty of
any self-ego-me-I-mine-identity-or-personality...'
One thereby directs mind away from those unsafe phenomena and turns it
towards the freedom of the Deathless Dimension: Nibbâna like this: 'But
this is peace, the supreme stilling of all construction, the relinquishing of
all acquisition, the sublime release of all clinging, the calming of all craving,
disgust, disillusion, ceasing of all noise, perception & sensation, Nibbâna...'
Firmly established in this safe mode of reflection, one either eliminates the
mental fermentations completely and thus attains Nibbâna - here and now -
in this very life, or if not that, then one is reborn spontaneously in the pure
abodes, the pure lands, the pure realms, the pure spheres, of fine material,
where one clears the 5 lower fetters - the 5 minor mental chains - & attains
Nibbâna from there, without ever returning to this world from that level...

PS: The 'Pure Land' (SukhaVati) Buddhism of today may thus have begun from
what the Buddha early & originally called 'The Pure Abodes' (SuddhaVasa):
