Paṭhamasaṅkhittasutta
In Brief (1st)
“Pañcimāni, bhikkhave, indriyāni.
“Mendicants, there are these five faculties.
Katamāni pañca?
What five?
Saddhindriyaṁ …pe… paññindriyaṁ—
The faculties of faith, energy, mindfulness, immersion, and wisdom.
imāni kho, bhikkhave, pañcindriyāni.
These are the five faculties.
Imesaṁ kho, bhikkhave, pañcannaṁ indriyānaṁ samattā paripūrattā arahaṁ hoti, tato mudutarehi anāgāmī hoti, tato mudutarehi sakadāgāmī hoti, tato mudutarehi sotāpanno hoti, tato mudutarehi dhammānusārī hoti, tato mudutarehi saddhānusārī hotī”ti.
Someone who has completed and fulfilled these five faculties is a perfected one. If they are weaker than that, they’re a non-returner. If they are weaker still, they’re a once-returner. If they are weaker still, they’re a stream-enterer. If they’re weaker still, they’re a follower of teachings. If they’re weaker still, they’re a follower by faith.”
