Sila is a prerequisite for Samadhi

Samadhi is a prerequisite for Panna

One cannot have Samadhi without Sila

One cannot have true Panna without Samadhi

True Panna means true insight where one sees all formations as they really are and without false perception of permanence, pleasant and self in them.

One can however approach magga-phala by Samadhi first Panna later or Panna first Samadhi later.

Panna first Samadhi later uses panna as a base to cultivate Samadhi. This panna however is not true panna rather a perception based panna which in tandem with Samadhi develops into true panna which turns into fruition attainment.

Wasn't Ven. Dhammadinna saying that the three aggregates are not equal to the Noble Eightfold Path?
In other words, Ven Dhammadinna was saying that the Noble Eightfold Path is a subset of three aggregate?
“As the lamp consumes oil, the path realises Nibbana”
