Is Worthy
Arahanta (SN 23.8)
1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anāthapiṇḍika in Jeta's grove in Sāvatthi.
2. Then venerable Rādha approached the Blessed One, worshipped, and sat on a side.
3. To venerable Rādha seated on a side the Blessed One said:
4. “Rādha, these five are the holding masses. What five? They are the holding masses of matter, feelings, perceptions, intentions, and consciousness.
5. “Rādha, when the noble disciple knows the arising, fading, satisfaction, danger, and the escape from these five holding masses, he is rightfully released knowing, not holding anything; it is said the monk is worthy, has destroyed desires, has come to the end of the holy life, done his duties, has put down the weight, has come to the highest good, has destroyed the bond `to be' and is released knowing.”
