What meaning does this name "stream-enterer" designate? If it means first attaining the noble path, then the name "stream-enterer" should designate the eighth \[person\]. The "eighth" refers to the candidate for stream-entry. Counting from the last toward the first among the four candidates and four fruits, the first candidate is the eighth. Therefore the \*Mahāvibhāṣā\*, fascicle 46, states: "The eighth noble one refers to the follower by faith and the follower by Dharma; counting from the superior, this is the eighth." Another explanation: Counting backward among the eight patiences, the patience with the Dharma of suffering is the eighth; therefore the \*Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa\* states that the path of seeing is called the stage of the eighth person. If \[the name\] designates first attaining a fruit, then when one detached from half \[of desire\] or wholly detached from desire reaches the subsequent knowledge of the path and attains the fruit of once-returner or the fruit of non-returner, this is also a first attainment and ought to be called stream-entry. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 23.123](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.23.123) - [Next: 23.125](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.23.125) - [Up: 23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.23) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821~en-mt.23.124) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.82.52) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.23.124](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.23.124) · Pramāṇa
