The 37 'things pertaining to enlightenment', or 'requisites of enlightenment' comprise the entire doctrines of the Buddha. They are:
the 4 foundations of mindfulness (satipattha^na, q.v.),
the 4 right efforts (s. padha^na),
the 4 roads to power (iddhi-pa^da, q.v.),
the 5 spiritual faculties (indriya; s. bala),
the 5 spiritual powers (bala, q.v.),
the 7 factors of enlightenment (bojjhanga, q.v.),
the Noble 8-fold Path (s. magga).
In M. 77 all the 37 bodhipakkhiya-dhamma^ are enumerated and explained though not called by that name. A detailed explanation of them is given in Vis.M. XXII. In S.XLVII, 51, 67, only the five spiritual faculties (indriya) are called bodhipakkhiya-dhamma^; and in the Jha^na Vibhanga, only the 7 factors of enlightenment (bojjhanga).
