III. The Wrong Way — SN45.25: A Good Person (1st)

1At Sāvatthī.

“Mendicants, I will teach you a bad person and a good person. Listen …

And what is a bad person? It’s someone who has wrong view, wrong thought, wrong speech, wrong action, wrong livelihood, wrong effort, wrong mindfulness, and wrong immersion. This is called a bad person.

2And what is a good person? It’s someone who has right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion. This is called a good person.”

1Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

"Asappurisañca vo, bhikkhave, desessāmi, sappurisañca. Taṁ suṇātha.

Katamo ca, bhikkhave, asappuriso? Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco micchādiṭṭhiko hoti, micchāsaṅkappo, micchāvāco, micchākammanto, micchāājīvo, micchāvāyāmo, micchāsati, micchāsamādhi – ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, asappuriso.

2Katamo ca, bhikkhave, sappuriso? Idha, bhikkhave, ekacco sammādiṭṭhiko hoti, sammāsaṅkappo, sammāvāco, sammākammanto, sammāājīvo, sammāvāyāmo, sammāsati, sammāsamādhi – ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, sappuriso"ti.

Pañcamaṁ.
