“चतूहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु अपण्णकप्पटिपदं पटिपन्नो होति, योनि चस्स आरद्धा होति आसवानं खयाय। कतमेहि चतूहि? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु सीलवा होति, बहुस्सुतो होति, आरद्धवीरियो होति, पञ्ञवा होति। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, चतूहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु अपण्णकप्पटिपदं पटिपन्नो होति, योनि चस्स आरद्धा होति आसवानं खयाया”ति।
“Catūhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu apaṇṇakappaṭipadaṁ paṭipanno hoti, yoni cassa āraddhā hoti āsavānaṁ khayāya. Katamehi catūhi? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu sīlavā hoti, bahussuto hoti, āraddhavīriyo hoti, paññavā hoti. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, catūhi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu apaṇṇakappaṭipadaṁ paṭipanno hoti, yoni cassa āraddhā hoti āsavānaṁ khayāyā”ti.
“Bhikkhus, when a bhikkhu has four things their practice is guaranteed, and they have laid the groundwork for ending the defilements. What four? It’s when a bhikkhu is ethical, learned, energetic, and wise. When a bhikkhu has these four things their practice is guaranteed, and they have laid the groundwork for ending the defilements.”
