The Discourse on One Accomplished in Morality
111.
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Worthy One, thus have I heard:
"Monks, dwell accomplished in morality, accomplished in the Pātimokkha; dwell restrained by the restraint of the Pātimokkha, accomplished in good conduct and lawful resort, seeing danger in the slightest faults; having accepted the training rules, train in them.
"For you, monks, dwelling accomplished in morality, accomplished in the Pātimokkha, dwelling restrained by the restraint of the Pātimokkha, accomplished in good conduct and lawful resort, seeing danger in the slightest faults, having accepted the training rules, training in them, what further is there to be done?
"If, monks, for a monk who is walking, covetousness has departed, anger has departed, sloth and torpor have departed, restlessness and remorse have departed, sceptical doubt has been abandoned, energy is aroused and unsluggish, mindfulness is established and unconfused, the body is calm and not excited, the mind is concentrated and fully focused. Even while walking, monks, a monk being thus is called 'ardent, having moral fear, constantly and continuously putting forth strenuous energy, resolute'.
"If, monks, for a monk who is standing, covetousness has departed, anger... etc. sloth and torpor... restlessness and remorse... sceptical doubt has been abandoned, energy is aroused and unsluggish, mindfulness is established and unconfused, the body is calm and not excited, the mind is concentrated and fully focused. Even while standing, monks, a monk being thus is called 'ardent, having moral fear, constantly and continuously putting forth strenuous energy, resolute'.
"If, monks, for a monk who is sitting, covetousness has departed, anger... etc. sloth and torpor... restlessness and remorse... sceptical doubt has been abandoned, energy is aroused and unsluggish, mindfulness is established and unconfused, the body is calm and not excited, the mind is concentrated and fully focused. Even while sitting, monks, a monk being thus is called 'ardent, having moral fear, constantly and continuously putting forth strenuous energy, resolute'.
"If, monks, for a monk who is lying down and awake, covetousness has departed, anger... etc. sloth and torpor... restlessness and remorse... sceptical doubt has been abandoned, energy is aroused and unsluggish, mindfulness is established and unconfused, the body is calm and not excited, the mind is concentrated and fully focused. Even while lying down and awake, monks, a monk being thus is called 'ardent, having moral fear, constantly and continuously putting forth strenuous energy, resolute'." The Blessed One said this meaning. Therein this is said:
Restrained a monk should bend, restrained he should stretch out.
Having examined the phenomena, the rise and fall of the aggregates.
"Training in what is proper for serenity of mind, always mindful;
They call such a monk 'constantly resolute'."
This meaning too was spoken by the Blessed One, thus have I heard. The twelfth.
