0 Source: Savatthi

1 “Whoever, O bhikkhus has reached certainty about me, all those are accomplished in view. Of those who are accomplished in view, five reach perfection in this world. Five reach perfection having left this world. Which five reach perfection in this world? The seven-lives-at-most [attainer], clan-to-clan [attainer], one seed [attainer], a sakadagami, one who attains arahantship in just this very life. These five reach perfection here in this world.

2 Which five reach perfection having left this world? An attainer of nibbana between [death and arising], an attainer of nibbana upon arrival, an attainer of nibbana without effort, an attainer of nibbana with effort, the one bound upstream, heading to the Akanittha realm. These are the five who reach perfection having left this world. Whoever, O bhikkhus has reached certainty about me, all those are accomplished in view. Of those who are accomplished in view, five reach perfection in this world. Five reach perfection having left this world.”
