[182] Furthermore, bhikkhus, an untrue person (asappurisa) is one who gains robes, almsfood, lodgings, and medicinal requisites for the sick. He reflects thus: 'I am one who gains robes, almsfood, lodgings, and medicinal requisites for the sick; but these other bhikkhus (bhikkhu) are not gainers of robes, almsfood, lodgings, and medicinal requisites for the sick.' On account of that gain he exalts himself and disparages others. This too, bhikkhus, is a quality of an untrue person.
But a true person (sappurisa), bhikkhus, reflects thus: 'It is not through gain that states of greed (lobha) go to destruction, or that states of hatred (dosa) go to destruction, or that states of delusion (moha) go to destruction. Even if one is not a gainer of robes, almsfood, lodgings, and medicinal requisites for the sick, yet if he is one who practices in accordance with the Dhamma, who practices rightly, who conducts himself in conformity with the Dhamma, he is worthy of honor for that, worthy of praise for that.' Having made the practice itself the essential thing, he neither exalts himself nor disparages others on account of that gain. This too, bhikkhus, is a quality of a true person.
