Five things for equanimity to grow:
1. Impartiality regarding all living and sentient beings
2. Indifference regarding all inanimate constructions
3. Avoiding biased people who prefer favouritism and one-sided partiality
4. Friendship with well ballanced people unmoved by both pleasure and pain
5. Commitment to ballance the mind into even and imperturbable equanimity
(from Samyutta Nikaya 46)
