PāliPali
There Venerable Sāriputta addressed the mendicants: “A mendicant with five qualities is fit to share their life with their spiritual companions. What five? A mendicant is personally accomplished in ethics, and answers questions that come up when discussing accomplishment in ethics. They’re personally accomplished in immersion, … They’re personally accomplished in wisdom, … They’re personally accomplished in freedom, … They’re personally accomplished in the knowledge and vision of freedom, and they answer questions that come up when discussing accomplishment in the knowledge and vision of freedom. A mendicant with these five qualities is fit to share their life with their spiritual companions.”
Tatra kho āyasmā sāriputto bhikkhū āmantesi …pe… pañcahi, āvuso, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu alaṁsājīvo sabrahmacārīnaṁ. Katamehi pañcahi? Idhāvuso, bhikkhu attanā ca sīlasampanno hoti, sīlasampadākathāya ca āgataṁ pañhaṁ byākattā hoti; attanā ca samādhisampanno hoti, samādhisampadākathāya ca āgataṁ pañhaṁ byākattā hoti; attanā ca paññāsampanno hoti, paññāsampadākathāya ca āgataṁ pañhaṁ byākattā hoti; attanā ca vimuttisampanno hoti, vimuttisampadākathāya ca āgataṁ pañhaṁ byākattā hoti; attanā ca vimuttiñāṇadassanasampanno hoti, vimuttiñāṇadassanasampadākathāya ca āgataṁ pañhaṁ byākattā hoti. Imehi kho, āvuso, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu alaṁsājīvo sabrahmacārīnan”ti. Catutthaṁ.
