[1353] Does one who does not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty (anaññātaññassāmītindriya) not realize the perfect-knower faculty (aññātāvindriya)?
One who realizes the highest fruition (aggaphala) does not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty, but it is not that he does not realize the perfect-knower faculty. Excepting the eighth person (aṭṭhamaka) and the Arahant, the remaining persons do not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty and do not realize the perfect-knower faculty.
Or rather, does one who does not realize the perfect-knower faculty not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty?
The eighth person does not realize the perfect-knower faculty, but it is not that he does not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty. Excepting the eighth person and the Arahant, the remaining persons do not realize the perfect-knower faculty and do not develop the 'I shall come to know the unknown' faculty.
