The Brahmin Life (1st)

At Sāvatthī.

“Mendicants, I will teach you life as a brahmin and the fruits of life as a brahmin.

Listen …

And what is life as a brahmin?

It is simply this noble eightfold path, that is:

right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.

This is called life as a brahmin.

And what are the fruits of life as a brahmin?

The fruits of stream-entry, once-return, non-return, and perfection.

These are called the fruits of life as a brahmin.”
