Which one quality? Heedfulness with regard to skillful qualities. This is the one quality that, when developed & pursued, keeps both kinds of benefit secure: benefit in this life & in lives to come." They praise heedfulness, the wise, in doing acts of merit. When heedful, wise, you achieve both kinds of benefit: benefits            in this life, & benefits            in lives to come. By breaking through to your benefit, youâre called enlightened, wise. See also: AN 4:113; AN 6:19AN 10:15; Dhp 21–32 - --> - - - -
