The Power of Diligence | Dhammapada Verse 32 | Appamada Vagga

In this verse, the Supreme Buddha tells us the great power of diligence

Appamādarato bhikkhu, pamāde bhayadassi vā;
Abhabbo parihānāya, nibbānasseva santike.

The monk who delights in diligence and fears negligence is incapable of losing wholesome qualities. He is close to Nibbāna.
