[501] Sakavādin: Is there non-knowledge (aññāṇa) in the Arahant? Paravādin: Yes. Sakavādin: Has not the Arahant's lust (rāga) been abandoned, cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, made non-existent, of a nature not to arise in the future? Paravādin: Yes. Sakavādin: If the Arahant's lust has been abandoned, cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, made non-existent, of a nature not to arise in the future, then indeed you should not say: "There is non-knowledge in the Arahant." … Sakavādin: Has not the Arahant's hatred (dosa) been abandoned … delusion (moha) been abandoned … lack of moral dread (anottappa) been abandoned, cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, made non-existent, of a nature not to arise in the future? Paravādin: Yes. Sakavādin: If the Arahant's lack of moral dread has been abandoned, cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, made non-existent, of a nature not to arise in the future, then indeed you should not say: "There is non-knowledge in the Arahant."
