– So It Was Said 19
The Book of the Ones Chapter Two Harmony in the Saṅgha
This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.
“One thing, mendicants, arises in the world for the welfare and happiness of the people, for the people, for the benefit, welfare, and happiness of gods and humans. What one thing? Harmony in the Saṅgha. When the Saṅgha is in harmony, they don’t argue, insult, block, or forsake each other. This inspires confidence in those without it, and increases confidence in those who have it.”
The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:
This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.
