Decorates

Sobhana (AN 5.233)

Endowed with five things the monastery bhikkhu decorates the monastery. What five?

He is virtuous restrained in the higher code of rules, abides seeing fear in the slightest fault, thus he observes the rules. Learned, bears that Teaching good at the beginning, middle and end, full of meanings even in the letters completely declaring the pure holy life. He learns that Teaching, practises reciting it and experiencing it in the mind penetratingly sees it and rectifies the view. He is polite, and explains the Teaching kindly with words that flow freely. Confidently approaches to advise, incite, to lighten the hearts of co-associātes in the holy life. He is a gainer for nothing, a quick and easy gainer of the four higher states of the mind, the pleasant abidings here and now. Bhikkhus, the monastery bhikkhu endowed with these five things decorates the monastery.
