117. “But, Bhikkhus, I do not know of a single thing that is more protective of This Beautiful and Good Dhamma, promoting its healthy continuity, non-degeneration and its non-disappearance, than living with persevering effort, as a result of which the essence of The Teachings is kept alive and undeterred, where there is no confusion or uncertainty about The Dhamma, and beings attain Its highest Fruits.

“Therefore, Bhikkhus, because of living with persevering effort, This Beautiful and Good Dhamma will continue to thrive, and those who taste Its Fruits will keep flourishing.”
