"Monks, a monk possessed of seven qualities is an expert in monastic discipline.
Which seven?
He knows an offence, he knows no offence, he knows a light offence, he knows a heavy offence, he is established in the monastic discipline and is unshakable, he is one who obtains at will, obtains without difficulty, obtains without trouble, the four meditative absorptions pertaining to the higher mind, which are pleasant abidings in the present life, with the elimination of the mental corruptions, in this very life, having realised by direct knowledge himself, having attained, he dwells in the liberation of mind and liberation by wisdom that are without mental corruptions.
Monks, a monk possessed of these seven qualities is an expert in monastic discipline."
