[29] Bhikkhus, there are these four Dhamma factors (dhammapada) — recognized as primal, recognized as of long standing, recognized as traditional, ancient, unadulterated and never before adulterated; they are not being adulterated and will not be adulterated; they are not repudiated by wise ascetics and brahmins. What four? Non-covetousness (anabhijjhā), bhikkhus, is a Dhamma factor recognized as primal, recognized as of long standing, recognized as traditional, ancient, unadulterated and never before adulterated; it is not being adulterated and will not be adulterated; it is not repudiated by wise ascetics and brahmins. Non-ill will (abyāpāda), bhikkhus, is a Dhamma factor … Right mindfulness (sammāsati), bhikkhus, is a Dhamma factor … Right concentration (sammāsamādhi), bhikkhus, is a Dhamma factor recognized as primal, recognized as of long standing, recognized as traditional, ancient, unadulterated and never before adulterated; it is not being adulterated and will not be adulterated; it is not repudiated by wise ascetics and brahmins. These, bhikkhus, are the four Dhamma factors — recognized as primal, recognized as of long standing, recognized as traditional, ancient, unadulterated and never before adulterated; they are not being adulterated and will not be adulterated; they are not repudiated by wise ascetics and brahmins. One should dwell free from covetousness, with a mind (citta) without ill will, mindful, one's mind unified, inwardly well concentrated.
