Living With Self-Assurance

“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato mātugāmo visārado agāraṁ ajjhāvasati.
“Mendicants, a female living at home with five qualities is self-assured.

Katamehi pañcahi?
What five?

Pāṇātipātā paṭivirato ca hoti, adinnādānā paṭivirato ca hoti, kāmesumicchācārā paṭivirato ca hoti, musāvādā paṭivirato ca hoti, surāmerayamajjappamādaṭṭhānā paṭivirato ca hoti—
She doesn’t kill living creatures, steal, commit sexual misconduct, lie, or consume beer, wine, and liquor intoxicants.

imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato mātugāmo visārado agāraṁ ajjhāvasatī”ti.
A female living at home with these five qualities is self-assured.”
