Seven Benefits

“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 bhāvitattā bahulīkatattā satta phalā sattānisaṁsā pāṭikaṅkhā.  Because of developing and cultivating these five faculties, seven fruits and benefits can be expected.
Katame satta phalā sattānisaṁsā?  What seven?
Diṭṭheva dhamme paṭikacca aññaṁ ārādheti,  They attain enlightenment early on in this very life.
no ce diṭṭheva dhamme paṭikacca aññaṁ ārādheti, atha maraṇakāle aññaṁ ārādheti.  If not, they attain enlightenment at the time of death.
No ce diṭṭheva dhamme aññaṁ ārādheti, no ce maraṇakāle aññaṁ ārādheti, atha pañcannaṁ orambhāgiyānaṁ saṁyojanānaṁ parikkhayā antarāparinibbāyī hoti,  If not, with the ending of the five lower fetters, they’re extinguished between one life and the next …
upahaccaparinibbāyī hoti,  they’re extinguished upon landing …
asaṅkhāraparinibbāyī hoti,  they’re extinguished without extra effort …
sasaṅkhāraparinibbāyī hoti,  they’re extinguished with extra effort …
uddhaṁsoto hoti akaniṭṭhagāmī.  they head upstream, going to the Akaniṭṭha realm.

Imesaṁ kho, bhikkhave, pañcannaṁ indriyānaṁ bhāvitattā bahulīkatattā ime satta phalā sattānisaṁsā pāṭikaṅkhā”ti.  Because of developing and cultivating these five faculties, these seven fruits and benefits can be expected.”

Chaṭṭhaṁ.
