The value of admirable friends
With thanks to new friends met through the Art of Hosting this week:
With regard to external factors, I don’t envision any other single factor like friendship with admirable people as doing so much for a monk in training, who has not attained the heart’s goal but remains intent on the unsurpassed safety from bondage. A monk who is a friend with admirable people abandons what is unskillful and develops what is skillful.
From the Itivuttaka collection of Pali suttas.
