[281] And what is the disposition (adhimutti) of beings? There are beings of inferior disposition; there are beings of superior disposition. Beings of inferior disposition associate with, keep company with, and attend upon beings of inferior disposition; beings of superior disposition associate with, keep company with, and attend upon beings of superior disposition. In the past too, beings of inferior disposition associated with, kept company with, and attended upon beings of inferior disposition; beings of superior disposition associated with, kept company with, and attended upon beings of superior disposition. In the future too, beings of inferior disposition will associate with, keep company with, and attend upon beings of inferior disposition; beings of superior disposition will associate with, keep company with, and attend upon beings of superior disposition. This is the disposition of beings.
