Bahukārasutta  Very Helpful

“Cattārome, bhikkhave, dhammā manussabhūtassa bahukārā honti.  “Mendicants, these four things are very helpful to a human being.
Katame cattāro?  What four?
Sappurisasaṁsevo, saddhammasavanaṁ, yonisomanasikāro, dhammānudhammappaṭipatti—  Associating with true persons, listening to the true teaching, rational application of mind, and practicing in line with the teaching.
Ime kho, bhikkhave, cattāro dhammā manussabhūtassa bahukārā hontī”ti.  These four things are very helpful to a human being.”

Sattamaṁ.
