[153] With which four factors of stream-entry (sotāpattiyaṅga) is he endowed?
Here, householder, a noble disciple is endowed with unwavering confidence (aveccappasāda) in the Buddha: "Thus indeed is that Blessed One: an arahant, perfectly enlightened by himself, accomplished in true knowledge and conduct, well-gone, knower of the world, unsurpassed trainer of persons to be tamed, teacher of devas and humans, enlightened, blessed."
He is endowed with unwavering confidence in the Dhamma: "The Dhamma is well proclaimed by the Blessed One, directly visible, not delayed by time, inviting one to come and see, leading onward, to be personally experienced by the wise."
He is endowed with unwavering confidence in the Saṅgha: "The Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is practicing well; the Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is practicing uprightly; the Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is practicing the true way; the Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is practicing properly — that is, the four pairs of persons, the eight individuals; this Saṅgha of the Blessed One's disciples is worthy of gifts, worthy of hospitality, worthy of offerings, worthy of reverential salutation, the unsurpassed field of merit for the world."
He is endowed with the virtues dear to the noble ones — unbroken, untorn, unblemished, unmottled, liberating, praised by the wise, ungrasped, conducive to concentration (samādhi).
With these four factors of stream-entry is he endowed.
