The Discourse on the Wise Person
45. "There are, monks, these three things laid down by the wise, laid down by good persons. What three? Giving, monks, is laid down by the wise, laid down by good persons. Going forth, monks, is laid down by the wise, laid down by good persons. Attendance upon mother and father, monks, is laid down by the wise, laid down by good persons. These, monks, are the three things laid down by the wise, laid down by good persons."
"Giving is laid down by the virtuous, non-violence, self-control, taming;
Attendance upon mother and father, of the peaceful, of those living the holy life.
These are the states of the virtuous, which a wise person should pursue;
A noble one accomplished in vision, he attains a safe world." The fifth.
