Vuddhi Sutta: Growth

translated from the Pali by

Thanissaro Bhikkhu

“A female disciple of the noble ones who grows in terms of these five types of growth grows in the noble growth, grasps hold of what is essential, what is excellent in the body. Which five? She grows in terms of conviction, in terms of virtue, in terms of learning, in terms of generosity, in terms of discernment. Growing in terms of these five types of growth, the female disciple of the noble ones grows in the noble growth, grasps hold of what is essential, what is excellent in the body.”

Growing in conviction & virtue, discernment, generosity, & learning, a virtuous female lay disciple such as this takes hold of the essence within herself.
