AN.4.71. Padhānasutta ("Effort")
Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")“Mendicants, when a mendicant has four things their practice is guaranteed, and they have laid the groundwork for ending the defilements. What four? It’s when a mendicant is ethical, learned, energetic, and wise. When a mendicant has these four things their practice is guaranteed, and they have laid the groundwork for ending the defilements.”
