205–209
“These two things don’t lead to the decline of a mendicant trainee. What two? Freedom from anger and acrimony … freedom from disdain and contempt … freedom from jealousy and stinginess … freedom from deceit and deviousness … conscience and prudence. These two things don’t lead to the decline of a mendicant trainee.”
