“Mendicants, a mendicant who has six qualities can’t attain strength in immersion.

What six?

It’s when a mendicant is not skilled in entering immersion, skilled in remaining in immersion, or skilled in emerging from immersion. And they don’t practice carefully and persistently, and they don’t do what’s suitable.
