134. Mittā Sutta (The Friend) Bhikkhus, you need to associate with a friend who possesses these three qualities. What three?

Here, Bhikkhus, the Bhikkhu gives away something that is difficult to give; he does something that is difficult to do; and he forgives what is difficult to forgive.

Therefore, Bhikkhus, associate with those who possess these three qualities.
