37.16Then Venerable Anuruddha went up to the Buddha … and asked him: “Sometimes, sir, with my clairvoyance that’s purified and superhuman, I see that a female—when her body breaks up, after death—is reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm. How many qualities do females have so that they’re reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm?”

“Anuruddha, when females have five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm. What five?

They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, loving, and wise. When females have these five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.”

37.17“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, free of jealousy, and wise. …”

37.18“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, free of stinginess, and wise. …”

37.19“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, not adulterous, and wise. …”

37.20“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, ethical, and wise. …”

37.21“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, educated, and wise. …”

37.22“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, energetic, and wise. …”

37.23“… They’re faithful, conscientious, prudent, mindful, and wise. …”
