Abhidhammapiṭaka · Kathāvatthu · Vol. 37 · Section 119

[119] Sakavādin: "Is the person (puggala) apprehended in the sense of a real and ultimate fact (sacchikaṭṭha-paramaṭṭha)?" Paravādin: "Yes (āmantā)." Sakavādin: "Is it not so that he who does not see, that which he does not see, that whereby he does not see — he does not see, does not see that, does not see thereby?" Paravādin: "Yes." Sakavādin: "If he who does not see, that which he does not see, that whereby he does not see — he does not see, does not see that, does not see thereby — then indeed you should not say: 'The person is apprehended in the sense of a real and ultimate fact.'"
