[232] Bhikkhus, when for a noble disciple (ariyasāvaka) the five perils and enmities have been stilled, and he possesses the four factors of stream-entry (sotāpattiyaṅga), then, if he wishes, he may declare of himself by himself: "I am one for whom hell (niraya) is finished, for whom the animal realm is finished, for whom the domain of hungry ghosts is finished, for whom the plane of misery, the bad destination, the lower world is finished; I am a stream-enterer (sotāpanna), no longer subject to downfall, fixed in destiny, with full awakening as my destination."
Which five perils and enmities have been stilled? Bhikkhus, that peril and enmity which one who destroys life, with the destruction of life as condition, generates pertaining to the present life, and that peril and enmity which he generates pertaining to lives to come, and that suffering (dukkha) and grief he experiences in the mind — for one who abstains from the destruction of life … thus that peril and enmity is stilled. Bhikkhus, that peril and enmity which one who takes what is not given … one who engages in sexual misconduct … one who speaks falsehood … one who indulges in liquor, wine, and intoxicants that are a basis for heedlessness, with the indulgence in liquor, wine, and intoxicants that are a basis for heedlessness as condition, generates pertaining to the present life, and that peril and enmity which he generates pertaining to lives to come, and that suffering and grief he experiences in the mind — one who abstains from liquor, wine, and intoxicants that are a basis for heedlessness generates no peril and enmity pertaining to the present life, generates no peril and enmity pertaining to lives to come, and experiences no suffering and grief in the mind; for one who abstains from liquor, wine, and intoxicants that are a basis for heedlessness, thus that peril and enmity is stilled. These are the five perils and enmities that have been stilled.
Which are the four factors of stream-entry with which he is possessed? Here, bhikkhus, a noble disciple possesses confirmed confidence in the Buddha thus: "Thus indeed is that Blessed One … teacher of devas and humans, the Buddha, the Blessed One." In the Dhamma … In the Saṅgha … He possesses the virtues dear to the noble ones — unbroken, untorn, unblemished, unmottled, freeing, praised by the wise, ungrasped, conducive to concentration (samādhi). He possesses these four factors of stream-entry.
