[72] Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu possessed of seven qualities is an upholder of the Discipline (vinayadhara). What seven? He knows what is an offence (āpatti); he knows what is not an offence; he knows a light offence; he knows a grave offence; he is virtuous, he dwells restrained by the restraint of the Pātimokkha, accomplished in conduct and resort, seeing danger in the slightest faults, he trains by undertaking the training rules; he is one who gains at will, without trouble, without difficulty, the four jhānas that pertain to the higher mind and are pleasant dwellings in this very life; with the destruction of the taints (āsava), he realizes for himself with direct knowledge, in this very life, the taintless liberation of mind and liberation by wisdom, and having entered upon it, he dwells therein. Bhikkhus, possessed of these seven qualities a bhikkhu is an upholder of the Discipline.
