Anguttara Nikaya V-175

Candala Sutta

The Outcaste

Translated from the Pali by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.

Translator's note: This discourse lists -- first in negative and then in positive form -- the basic requirements for being a Buddhist lay follower in good standing.

"Endowed with these five qualities, a lay follower is an outcaste of a lay follower, a stain of a lay follower, a dregs of a lay follower.

Which five?

He/she does not have conviction [in the Buddha's Awakening]; is unvirtuous; is eager for protective charms & ceremonies; trusts protective charms & ceremonies, not kamma; and searches for recipients of his/her offerings outside (of the Sangha), and gives offerings there first.

Endowed with these five qualities, a lay follower is an outcaste of a lay follower, a stain of a lay follower, a dregs of a lay follower.

"Endowed with these five qualities, a lay follower is a jewel of a lay follower, a lotus of a lay follower, a fine flower of a lay follower.
