Aṅguttara Nikāya — Discursos Numerados — 3.122 — Sagacity

1“Mendicants, there are these three kinds of sagacity. What three? Sagacity of body, speech, and mind.

2And what is sagacity of body? It’s when a mendicant doesn’t kill living creatures, steal, or have sex. This is called ‘sagacity of body’.

3And what is sagacity of speech? It’s when a mendicant doesn’t use speech that’s false, backbiting, harsh, or nonsensical. This is called ‘sagacity of speech’.

4And what is sagacity of mind? It’s when a mendicant realizes the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom. And they live having realized it with their own insight in this very life due to the ending of defilements. This is called ‘sagacity of mind’. These are the three kinds of sagacity.

5A sage in body, a sage in speech,
a sage undefiled in heart;
a sage, blessed with sagacity,
has given up everything, they say.”
