Five strengths (Skt. pañcabala; Tib. སྟོབས་ལྔ་, top nga; Wyl. stobs lnga) are the fifth group of practices in the thirty-seven factors of enlightenment, practised on the final two stages of the path of joining. They are:
- faith (Skt. śraddhā, Tib. དད་པ་, dad pa)
- diligence (Skt. vīrya, Tib. བརྩོན་འགྲུས་, brtson 'grus)
- mindfulness (Skt. smṛti, Tib. དྲན་པ་, dran pa)
- concentration (Skt. samādhi, Tib. ཏིང་ངེ་འཛིན་, ting nge 'dzin)
- wisdom (Skt. prajñā, Tib. ཤེས་རབ་, shes rab)
The Sutra of the Ten Bhumis says:
- "The five strengths are the same as the above [i.e., the five powers], once they have become capable of overcoming their opposing factors."
