Appamādasutta

Diligence

“Catūhi, bhikkhave, ṭhānehi appamādo karaṇīyo.
“Mendicants, you should be diligent in four situations.

Katamehi catūhi?
What four?

Kāyaduccaritaṁ, bhikkhave, pajahatha, kāyasucaritaṁ bhāvetha;
Give up bad conduct by way of body, speech, and mind; and develop good conduct by way of body, speech, and mind.

tattha ca mā pamādattha.
Don’t neglect these things.

Vacīduccaritaṁ, bhikkhave, pajahatha, vacīsucaritaṁ bhāvetha;

tattha ca mā pamādattha.

Manoduccaritaṁ, bhikkhave, pajahatha, manosucaritaṁ bhāvetha;

tattha ca mā pamādattha.

Micchādiṭṭhiṁ, bhikkhave, pajahatha, sammādiṭṭhiṁ bhāvetha;
Give up wrong view; and develop right view.

tattha ca mā pamādattha.
Don’t neglect this.

Yato kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno kāyaduccaritaṁ pahīnaṁ hoti kāyasucaritaṁ bhāvitaṁ, vacīduccaritaṁ pahīnaṁ hoti vacīsucaritaṁ bhāvitaṁ, manoduccaritaṁ pahīnaṁ hoti manosucaritaṁ bhāvitaṁ, micchādiṭṭhi pahīnā hoti sammādiṭṭhi bhāvitā, so na bhāyati samparāyikassa maraṇassā”ti.
A mendicant who has done these things does not fear death in lives to come.”

Chaṭṭhaṁ.
