[31] And how, Mahānāma, does a noble disciple come to be possessed of the seven good qualities (saddhamma)? Here, Mahānāma, a noble disciple has faith (saddhā): he places faith in the awakening of the Tathāgata thus: 'Thus indeed is that Blessed One: an arahant, fully self-awakened, accomplished in true knowledge (vijjā) and conduct, well-gone, knower of the world, unsurpassed trainer of persons fit to be tamed, teacher of devas and humans, awakened, blessed.'
He has moral shame (hirī): he is ashamed of bodily misconduct, verbal misconduct, and mental misconduct; he is ashamed of incurring evil, unwholesome states.
He has moral dread (ottappa): he dreads bodily misconduct, verbal misconduct, and mental misconduct; he dreads incurring evil, unwholesome states.
He is learned (bahussuta), a bearer of what he has heard, a storer-up of what he has heard: those teachings that are good in the beginning, good in the middle, and good in the end, possessed of meaning and possessed of phrasing, which proclaim the holy life (brahmacariya) utterly complete and pure — such teachings he has learned much of, borne in mind, recited verbally, pondered over with the mind, and well penetrated by view.
He is one of aroused energy (vīriya) for the abandoning of unwholesome states and the acquiring of wholesome states; he is strong, firm in exertion, not shirking the burden with regard to wholesome states.
He has mindfulness (sati): possessed of supreme mindfulness and discretion, he remembers and recollects even what was done long ago and what was said long ago.
He is wise: possessed of wisdom (paññā) that discerns arising and passing away, which is noble and penetrative, leading rightly to the destruction of suffering (dukkha).
Thus indeed, Mahānāma, is a noble disciple possessed of the seven good qualities.
