What four? The confirmed ascetic, the white lotus ascetic, the pink lotus ascetic, and the delicate ascetic of ascetics. And how is an individual a confirmed ascetic? It\u2019s when a mendicant has right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion. That\u2019s how an individual is a confirmed ascetic. And how is an individual a white lotus ascetic? It\u2019s when they have right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right immersion, right knowledge, and right freedom. But they don\u2019t have direct meditative experience of the eight liberations. That\u2019s how an individual is a white lotus ascetic. And how is an individual a pink lotus ascetic? It\u2019s when they have right view \u2026 and right freedom. And they do have direct meditative experience of the eight liberations. That\u2019s how an individual is a pink lotus ascetic. And how is an individual a delicate ascetic of ascetics? It\u2019s when a mendicant usually uses only what they\u2019ve been invited to accept \u2026 And if anyone should be rightly called a delicate ascetic of ascetics, it\u2019s me. These are the four individuals found in the world.\u201d","title":"Right View","tradition":"Anguttara Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":206}
