§ 80. Conduct

Translated from the Anguttara-Nik¤ya (iii.88)

And what, O priests, is the discipline in elevated conduct?

Whenever, O priests, a priest is correct in his conduct, and lives restrained by the restraints of the P¤timokkha, is exemplary in his habits and associations, and afraid of even the smallest fault, and adopts and disciplines himself in the precepts, this, O priests, is called the discipline in elevated conduct.
