Patitthita Sutta: Established

Patitthita Sutta

Summary: Heedfulness: the cornerstone upon which all other skillful qualities are based.

SN 48.56 PTS: S v 232 CDB ii 1698

Patitthita Sutta: Established

translated from the Pali by

Thanissaro Bhikkhu

“Monks, when one quality is established in a monk, the five faculties are developed & developed well. Which one quality? Heedfulness.

“And what is heedfulness? There is the case where a monk guards his mind with regard to [mental] fermentations and mental qualities accompanied by fermentations. When his mind is guarded with regard to fermentations and mental qualities accompanied by fermentations, the faculty of conviction goes to the culmination of its development. The faculty of persistence… mindfulness… concentration… discernment goes to the culmination of its development.

“This is how when one quality is established in a monk, the five faculties are developed & developed well.”
