  • Kāli Sutta

The Buddha, while staying at the Nigrodhārāma, visits his kinswoman Kāligodhā of Kapilavatthu, and tells her of the four qualities to be found in the sotāpanna -

  • unwavering loyalty to the Buddha,
  • the Dhamma and
  • the Sangha,
  • freedom from all taint of stinginess,
  • delight in self-surrender and
  • in the dispensing of charitable gifts.

Kāligodhā states that she possesses all these qualities. S. v.396.
