Some say nice things to their friends without following it up. The wise will recognize one who talks without doing. No true friend relentlessly suspects betrayal, looking for fault. One on whom you rest, like a child on the breast, is a true friend, not split from you by others. One whose reward is the fruit of bearing the burden of service develops a happy state, producing joy and attracting praise. One who has drunk the nectar of seclusion and the nectar of peace, free of stress, free of evil, drinks the joyous nectar of Dhamma.","title":"Conscientious Companionship","tradition":"Khuddaka Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":117}
