Summary

The Buddha addresses the monks, stating that people with similar qualities tend to congregate, correspond, and harmonize with each other. He provides various examples of this principle, contrasting those who are unlearned with the learned, the greedy with the generous, and the ethical with the unethical. The Buddha advises the monks to discern these relationships and to practice what is right and avoid what is wrong. (AI generated)
