Spiritual Friendship | Kalyana Mitta | Admirable Friends is 100% of the Holy Life | Ajahn Dhammasiha

Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about the importance of 'Admirable Friendship' for our spiritual progress. 'Kaḷyāṇa Mittatā' can be translated as 'Beautiful Friendship', 'Noble Friendship' or 'Good Spiritual Friendship'. It means a friend who causes our wholesome qualities like virtue, generosity, kindness and wisdom to increase when we associate with them, because they have developed these qualities themselves. Such a friend in a 'Kaḷyāṇa Mitta'. The opposite, a bad friend that causes us to get more angry, stingy and deluded, is called a 'Pāpa Mitta'. Bad Friendship is Pāpa Mittatā. Underlining the crucial importance of good friendship for our Dhamma practice, the Buddha once said famously to Venerable Ānanda: "Having good spiritual friends is 100% of the holy life".
