325. “Bhikkhus, while being lazy and not applying any effort in a well proclaimed teaching and training, one will come to much suffering.

“And what is the reason for this?

“Bhikkhus, it is because the teaching being discussed has nothing wrong with it, for it is well-proclaimed and beneficial, while the problem is the laziness itself.”
