The \*Kuśalamūlasaṃparigraha-sūtra\* says: "There are four dharmas that constitute a good spiritual friend: first, being able to cause people to enter into wholesome dharmas; second, being able to obstruct unwholesome dharmas; third, being able to cause people to abide in the true Dharma; fourth, always being able to accord with teaching and transforming." The \*Yogācārabhūmi-śāstra\* says: "A good spiritual friend possesses ten virtues: first, subdued; second, tranquil; third, delusions removed; fourth, virtues increased; fifth, possessing vigor; sixth, rich in scriptural learning; seventh, awakened to reality; eighth, skilled in exposition; ninth, deep in compassion; tenth, free from regression. First, 'subdued' means being in accord with the precepts because the sense faculties are tamed; 'tranquil' means being in accord with concentration because of internal restraint; 'delusions removed' means that faith and mindfulness are in accord with wisdom because afflictions are severed; 'virtues increased' means that precepts, concentration, and wisdom are complete without deficiency; 'possessing vigor' means being indefatigable when benefiting others; 'rich in scriptural learning' means having heard much; 'awakened to reality' means understanding the true meaning; 'skilled in exposition' means being free of error; 'deep in compassion' means renouncing selfish expectations; 'free from regression' means being respectful at all times." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.45) - [Next: 1.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.47) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127~en-mt.1.46) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.46) · Pramāṇa
