The Discourse on Those Worthy of Gifts
10.
"Monks, there are these nine persons worthy of offerings, worthy of hospitality, worthy of gifts, worthy of reverential salutation, an unsurpassed field of merit for the world.
Which nine?
A Worthy One, one practising for arahantship, a non-returner, one practising for the realisation of the fruition of non-returning, a once-returner, one practising for the realisation of the fruition of once-returning, a stream-enterer, one practising for the realisation of the fruition of stream-entry, one of change-of-lineage -
these, monks, are the nine persons worthy of offerings, etc.
an unsurpassed field of merit for the world."
The tenth.
