c11.s3.t3.16

The system rests here exclusively on the series of the ten Samyojanas.* Whatever in the older form of the doctrine referred to the Samyojanas, is here adopted; the other categories which were there dealt with, Râga, Dosa, Moha, and the Âsavas, have vanished from the new wording, or have been replaced by notions from the Samyojana series. Thus, when we regard the Samyojanas numbered according to the order given above, the graded course of their conquest is the following: the Sotâpanna has got rid of 1—3; in the case of the Sakadâgâmî and Anâgâmî, 4 and 5 also vanished, and that in such a way that in the Sak. they were reduced to a small measure, in the Anâg. wholly annihilated; the Arahâ finally has extirpated the last vices also, 6—10.
