3. The Six Faculties – 3. Chaḷindriyavagga

SN 48.26 A Stream-Enterer – Sotāpannasutta

 

“Bhikkhū, there are these six faculties.

“Chayimāni, bhikkhave, indriyāni.

What six?

Katamāni cha?

The faculties of the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind.

Cakkhundriyaṁ …pe… manindriyaṁ.

A noble disciple comes to truly understand these six faculties’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape.

Yato kho, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako imesaṁ channaṁ indriyānaṁ samudayañca atthaṅgamañca assādañca ādīnavañca nissaraṇañca yathābhūtaṁ pajānāti—

Such a noble disciple is called a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, bound for awakening.”

ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, ariyasāvako sotāpanno avinipātadhammo niyato sambodhiparāyaṇo”ti.
