[645] **Just as Vakkali was one of released faith, and Bhadrāvudha and Āḷavigotama:** Just as Vakkali was of released faith (muttasaddha), giving weight to faith (saddhā), with faith as forerunner, resolved upon faith, with faith as dominant influence, and attained arahantship; just as Bhadrāvudha was of released faith, giving weight to faith, with faith as forerunner, resolved upon faith, with faith as dominant influence, and attained arahantship; just as Āḷavigotama was of released faith, giving weight to faith, with faith as forerunner, resolved upon faith, with faith as dominant influence, and attained arahantship — thus: "Just as Vakkali was one of released faith, and Bhadrāvudha and Āḷavigotama."
