  1. 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.”
