4.4.4.1

Arahā sotāpattiphalena samannāgatoti?

Is an arahant endowed with the fruit of stream-entry?

Again, if an Arahant is endowed with the first fruition, the second, and the third, he must be one of whom the characteristics of all three classes of the first, of the second, and of all five classes of the third stages are true. Then he would be rightly described as in one and all at the same time—which is absurd. The same argument holds for those who have realized the Third and the Second Fruit.
