Sammukhībhāvasutta

from: 5. The Lesser Chapter

Present

“Mendicants, when three things are present, a faithful gentleman brims with much merit. What three? When faith is present, when a gift to give is present, and when those worthy of a religious donation are present. When these three things are present, a faithful gentleman brims with much merit.”
