sn.37.15 Saṁyutta Nikāya (Linked Discourses)

Loving

Then Venerable Anuruddha went up to the Buddha … and asked him,
“Sometimes, sir, with my clairvoyance that’s purified and superhuman, I see that a female—when her body breaks up, after death—is reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.
How many qualities do females have so that they’re reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm?”
“Anuruddha, when females have five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.
What five?
They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, loving, and wise.
When females have these five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.”
