Katamehi catūhi?
It’s when a noble disciple has experiential confidence in the Buddha …

itipi so bhagavā …pe… satthā devamanussānaṁ buddho bhagavāti.
the teaching …
Dhamme …pe…

And they have the ethical conduct loved by the noble ones … leading to samādhi.

A noble disciple who has these four things has gone beyond all fear of being reborn in a bad place.”
