AN.6.71. Sakkhibhabbasutta ("Capable of Realizing")
Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")“Mendicants, a mendicant with six qualities is incapable of realizing anything that can be realized, in each and every case. What six? It’s when a mendicant doesn’t truly understand which qualities make things worse, which keep things steady, which lead to distinction, and which lead to penetration. And they don’t practice carefully or do what’s suitable. A mendicant with these six qualities is incapable of realizing anything that can be realized, in each and every case.
