AN10_35: Nissayasutta

Nissayasutta - translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi

“Bhante, how many qualities should a bhikkhu possess to give dependence?”

“A bhikkhu who possesses ten qualities, Upāli, may give dependence. What ten?” …

The same ten qualities as in the preceding sutta.

“A bhikkhu who possesses these ten qualities may give dependence.”
