To Benefit Oneself

“Mendicants, these four individuals are found in the world.

What four?

One who practices to benefit themselves, but not others;

one who practices to benefit others, but not themselves;

one who practices to benefit neither themselves nor others; and

one who practices to benefit both themselves and others.

These are the four individuals found in the world.”
