Daily Reading of the World of the Buddha -
There are these six ways of being considerate. What six? One has love in deed toward one’s companions in the holy life, both openly and in private; one has love in word toward one’s companions in the holy life, both openly and in private one has love in thought toward one’s companions in the holy life, both openly and in private. Then, things acquired rightly and properly, be they only scraps, one loves to share impartially, to use them in common with one’s companions in the holy life. Also, one has those virtues that are unbroken, without flaw, spotless, without blemish, bringing freedom, conductive to concentration; with these, one lives in harmony with one’s fellows in the holy life. And finally, one has that noble view that is saving, leading him who acts accordingly to the complete overcoming of suffering; and one lives with this view among one’s companions in the holy life. These are the six ways of being considerate.
