Kalyāṇamittassetaṃ, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno pāṭikankhaṃ – ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bhāvessati, ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bahulīkarissati. Kathañca, bhikkhave, bhikkhu kalyāṇamitto ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bhāveti, ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bahulīkaroti? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu sammādiṭṭhiṃ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṃ dosavinayapariyosānaṃ mohavinayapariyosānaṃ … pe … sammāsamādhiṃ bhāveti rāgavinayapariyosānaṃ dosavinayapariyosānaṃ mohavinayapariyosānaṃ. Evaṃ kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhu kalyāṇamitto ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bhāveti, ariyaṃ aṭṭhangikaṃ maggaṃ bahulīkarotī"ti.
