The Discourse on Compassion
235.
"Monks, a resident monk possessed of five qualities has compassion for householders.
Which five?
He encourages them in higher morality;
he establishes them in the vision of the Teaching;
having approached the sick, he arouses mindfulness -
'Venerables, establish mindfulness directed towards what is worthy';
when a great community of monks has arrived, monks from various countries, having approached the householders he informs them -
'Friends, a great community of monks has arrived, monks from various countries, make merit, it is the right time to make merit';
whatever food they give him, whether coarse or superior, that he uses himself, he does not waste offerings given in faith.
Monks, a resident monk possessed of these five qualities has compassion for householders."
