    “छहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु अभब्बो समाधिस्मिं बलतं पापुणितुं। कतमेहि छहि? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु न समाधिस्स समापत्तिकुसलो होति, न समाधिस्स ठितिकुसलो होति, न समाधिस्स वुट्ठानकुसलो होति, असक्कच्चकारी च होति, असातच्चकारी च, असप्पायकारी च। इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, छहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु अभब्बो समाधिस्मिं बलतं पापुणितुं।

    “Chahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu abhabbo samādhismiṁ1 balataṁ pāpuṇituṁ. Katamehi chahi? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu na samādhissa2 samāpattikusalo hoti, na samādhissa ṭhitikusalo hoti, na samādhissa vuṭṭhānakusalo hoti, asakkaccakārī ca hoti, asātaccakārī ca, asappāyakārī ca. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, chahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu abhabbo samādhismiṁ balataṁ pāpuṇituṁ.

    “Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu who has six qualities can’t attain strength in immersion. What six? It’s when a bhikkhu is not skilled in entering immersion, skilled in remaining in immersion, or skilled in emerging from immersion. And they don’t practice carefully and persistently, and they don’t do what’s suitable. A bhikkhu who has these six qualities can’t attain strength in immersion.
