A Trainee

At Sāvatthī.
Then a mendicant went up to the Buddha … and asked him,
“Sir, they speak of this person called ‘a trainee’.
How is a trainee defined?”
“Mendicant, it’s someone who has a trainee’s right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.
That’s how a trainee is defined.”
