“Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu with six qualities soon acquires great and abundant good qualities. What six? It’s when a bhikkhu is full of light, full of practice, full of inspiration, and full of eagerness. They don’t slack off when it comes to developing skillful qualities. They reach further. A bhikkhu who has these six qualities soon acquires great and abundant good qualities.”
