Verse 14 for 14 January, 2026
14. Mahali said to the Lord : "Sir, what is reason, what is the cause of doing, of committing an evil deed? "Greed, hatred, delusion, not paying proper attention and wrongly directed thoughts-these are the reasons, these are the causes of doing, of committing an evil deed." "Then what, Sir, is the reason, what is the cause of doing, of committing a beautiful deed?" "Generosity, love, wisdom, paying attention and rightly directed thought-these are the reasons, these are the causes of doing, committing a beautiful deed."
Anguttara Nikaya V.87 ::
