1"Bhikkhus, these two qualities lead to the non-decline of a bhikkhu who is a trainee. What two? (205) Non-anger and non-hostility … (206) Non-denigration and non-insolence … (207) Non-envy and non-miserliness … (208) Non-deceitfulness and non-craftiness … (209) Moral shame and moral dread. These two qualities lead to the non-decline of a bhikkhu who is a trainee."
