A Good Person (1st)

At Sāvatthī.
“Mendicants, I will teach you a bad person and a good person.
Listen …
And what is a bad person?
It’s someone who has wrong view, wrong thought, wrong speech, wrong action, wrong livelihood, wrong effort, wrong mindfulness, and wrong immersion.
This is called a bad person.
And what is a good person?
It’s someone who has right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.
This is called a good person.”
