Then you will accomplish supernatural powers, eliminate all confused thoughts, attain the fruit of asceticism, and arrive at nirvāṇa on your own. What is this one Dharma? It is recollection of giving. You should cultivate it well, and you should expound and propagate it widely; then you will accomplish supernatural powers, dispel all confused thoughts, attain the fruit of asceticism, and arrive at nirvāṇa on your own. Thus, bhikṣus, you should cultivate one Dharma; you should widely propagate one Dharma. Thus, bhikṣus, should you train." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) > It was then that the Bhagavān addressed the monks, “One should cultivate one thing and disseminate one thing. Then, they will achieve spiritual knowledge, dispel their confused ideas, win the fruits of the ascetic, and bring about nirvāṇa themselves. What’s that one thing? It’s called recollecting generosity. One should cultivate and widely disseminate it. Then, they will achieve spiritual knowledge, dispel their confused ideas, win the fruits of the ascetic, and bring about nirvāṇa themselves. > — Charles Patton, The Numbered Discourses (selected sūtras) > “Therefore, monks, you should cultivate this one thing and widely disseminate this one thing.
