Kalyāṇamitto yo bhikkhu, sappatisso sagāravo;
Karaṃ mittānaṃ vacanaṃ, sampajāno patissato;
Pāpuṇe anupubbena, sabbasaṃyojanakkhayaṃ.
When a bhikkhu has good friends, and is reverential and respectful;
Doing what one's friends advise, clearly comprehending and mindful;
One may progressively attain the destruction of all fetters.
Itivuttaka 1.17
The Udāna and the Itivuttaka,
