Aggadhammasutta

“Chahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu abhabbo aggaṁ dhammaṁ arahattaṁ sacchikātuṁ. Katamehi chahi? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu assaddho hoti, ahiriko hoti, anottappī hoti, kusīto hoti, duppañño hoti, kāye ca jīvite ca sāpekkho hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, chahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu abhabbo aggaṁ dhammaṁ arahattaṁ sacchikātuṁ.

The Best Thing

“Mendicants, a mendicant with six qualities can’t realize the best thing, perfection. What six? It’s when a mendicant is faithless, shameless, imprudent, lazy, and witless. And they’re concerned with their body and their life. A mendicant with these six qualities can’t realize the best thing, perfection.

Chahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu bhabbo aggaṁ dhammaṁ arahattaṁ sacchikātuṁ. Katamehi chahi? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu saddho hoti, hirīmā hoti, ottappī hoti, āraddhavīriyo hoti, paññavā hoti, kāye ca jīvite ca anapekkho hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, chahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu bhabbo aggaṁ dhammaṁ arahattaṁ sacchikātun”ti.

A mendicant with six qualities can realize the best thing, perfection. What six? It’s when a mendicant is faithful, conscientious, prudent, energetic, and wise. And they have no concern for their body and their life. A mendicant with these six qualities can realize the best thing, perfection.”
