They have turned away from this Dhamma-&-Vinaya. They attain, in terms of this Dhamma-&-Vinaya, no growth, increase, or abundance. "But any monks who are not deceitful, not talkers, who are enlightened, pliant, & well-centered: they are followers of mine. They have not turned away from this Dhamma-&-Vinaya. They attain, in terms of this Dhamma-&-Vinaya, growth, increase, & abundance. Deceitful, stubborn, talkers, frauds, arrogant, uncentered: they donât grow in the Dhamma taught by the Rightly Self-awakened One. Not deceitful, not talkers, enlightened, pliant, well-centered: they grow in the Dhamma taught by the One Rightly Self-awakened. - --> - - - -
