Venerable Shravasti Dhammika

The Buddha’s Words of Wisdom

One who is clever should make no friends

Among the malicious, the angry, the envious

Or those who delight in the misfortunes of others.

Truly, contact with the bad is evil.

One who is clever should make friends

With those with faith, the pleasant, the wise,

And those with great learning.

Truly, contact with the good is blessed.
