Diligence

Appamādasutta

from: 12. With Kesi

Diligence

“Mendicants, you should be diligent in four situations. What four? Give up bad conduct by way of body, speech, and mind; and develop good conduct by way of body, speech, and mind. Don’t neglect these things. Give up wrong view; and develop right view. Don’t neglect this.

A mendicant who has done these things does not fear death in lives to come.”
