The characteristics are: 1. desire; 2. preparatory application; 3. bad destinies; 4. asaṃkhyeya; 5. blazing; 6. unshakeable; 7. extremely well purified; and 8. good dharmas of the factors of awakening. These eight lineages of persons are essentially subsumed under four: first, the distinction of the grades of desire and preparatory application; second, the single factor of bad destinies, distinguished by whether one has departed from them or not; third, the single factor of asaṃkhyeya, distinguished by amount; fourth, the four factors of blazing and so forth, distinguished by whether they are accomplished or unaccomplished.
