They don’t politely rise, bow, or offer a seat. They hide what they have. Even when they have much they give little. Even when they have fine things they give coarse things. They give carelessly, not carefully.
Imehi kho, bhikkhave, sattahi aṅgehi samannāgataṁ kulaṁ anupagantvā vā nālaṁ upagantuṁ, upagantvā vā nālaṁ upanisīdituṁ.
Visiting a family with these seven factors is not worthwhile, or if you’ve already arrived, sitting down is not worthwhile.
