Seeing danger in the slightest fault, they keep the rules they’ve undertaken.\nThey’re very learned, remembering and keeping what they’ve learned. These teachings are good in the beginning, good in the middle, and good in the end, meaningful and well-phrased, describing a spiritual practice that’s entirely full and pure. They are very learned in such teachings, remembering them, rehearsing them, mentally scrutinizing them, and penetrating them theoretically.\nThey’re a good speaker who enunciates well, with a polished, clear, and articulate voice that expresses the meaning.\nThey get the four absorptions—blissful meditations in this life that belong to the higher mind—when they want, without trouble or difficulty.\nThey realize the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom. And they live having realized it with their own insight in this very life due to the ending of defilements.\nA resident mendicant with these five qualities is dear and beloved to their spiritual companions, respected and admired.”"}}]}],"sourceRevision":"afdafa92450cfe7573b280da50382888323666d2","sourceUrl":"https://suttacentral.net/an5.232/en/sujato","licence":"CC0 1.0","licenceUrl":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/","editionNote":"Full supplied source file; inherited abbreviations are preserved.
