A.10_052 Saariputta Sutta Ten factors of knowing the minds of others. Monks still unable to read the minds of others should take the following attitude to their training: Just as young people who wish to see themselves clearly in the mirror will not rest until they have polished the mirror clean, a monk should not rest from his practice until he has freed his mind of all: 1. abhijjha; 2. illwill (byapada); 3. sloth and torpor (thinamiddha); 4. absent mindedness; 5. doubt; 6. anger; 7. sraomong; 8. garn prarop an reng kla; 9. laziness, and; 10. lack of concentration.
They should know the value for cultivating wholesomeness, content themselves with diligence, like a person with his clothes or head on fire would l earn to extinguish the flames, establish himself in wholesomeness for the extinguishing of those defilements.
