“Mendicants, sentient beings come together and converge because of an element:
those who kill living creatures with those who kill living creatures,
those who steal …
commit sexual misconduct …
lie …
speak divisively …
speak harshly …
talk nonsense …
are covetous …
are malicious …
have wrong view …
Those who refrain from killing living creatures …
who refrain from stealing …
who refrain from sexual misconduct …
who refrain from lying …
who refrain from divisive speech …
who refrain from harsh speech …
who refrain from talking nonsense …
are not covetous …
are not malicious …
have right view with those who have right view.”
