Five Kinds of Stinginess

“Mendicants, there are these five kinds of stinginess.
What five?
Stinginess with dwellings, families, material possessions, praise, and the teachings.
These are the five kinds of stinginess.
The most contemptible of these five kinds of stinginess is stinginess with the teachings.”
