The First Discourse on Purity
121.
"There are, monks, these three purities.
What three?
Bodily purity, verbal purity, mental purity.
And what, monks, is bodily purity?
Here, monks, some one abstains from killing living beings, abstains from taking what is not given, abstains from sexual misconduct.
This is called, monks, bodily purity.
"And what, monks, is verbal purity? Here, monks, some one abstains from lying, abstains from divisive speech, abstains from harsh speech, abstains from idle chatter. This is called, monks, verbal purity.
"And what, monks, is mental purity? Here, monks, some one is non-covetous, has a mind without ill-will, and holds right view. This is called, monks, mental purity. These, monks, are the three purities." The eighth.
