205–209
“These two things don’t lead to the decline of a mendicant trainee.
What two?
Freedom from anger and hostility … freedom from disdain and contempt … freedom from jealousy and stinginess … freedom from deceit and deviousness … conscience and prudence.
These two things don’t lead to the decline of a mendicant trainee.”
