khittasutta In Brief (3rd)
āPaƱcimÄni, bhikkhave, indriyÄni. āMendicants, there are these five faculties.
KatamÄni paƱca? What five?
Saddhindriyaį¹ ā¦peā¦ paƱƱindriyaį¹āThe faculties of faith, energy, mindfulness, immersion, and wisdom.
imÄni kho, bhikkhave, paƱcindriyÄni. These are the five faculties.
Imesaį¹ kho, bhikkhave, paƱcannaį¹ indriyÄnaį¹ samattÄ paripÅ«rattÄ arahaį¹ hoti, tato mudutarehi anÄgÄmÄ« hoti, tato mudutarehi sakadÄgÄmÄ« hoti, tato mudutarehi sotÄpanno hoti, tato mudutarehi dhammÄnusÄrÄ« hoti, tato mudutarehi saddhÄnusÄrÄ« hoti. Someone who has completed and fulfilled these five faculties is a perfected one. If they are weaker than that, theyāre a non-returner ā¦ a once-returner ā¦ a stream-enterer ā¦ a follower of teachings ā¦ a follower by faith.
Iti kho, bhikkhave, paripÅ«raį¹ paripÅ«rakÄrÄ« ÄrÄdheti, padesaį¹ padesakÄrÄ« ÄrÄdheti. So, mendicants, if you practice partially you succeed partially. If you practice fully you succeed fully. This idea is discussed more fully at AN 3.86ā88.
āAvaƱjhÄni tvevÄhaį¹, bhikkhave, paƱcindriyÄnÄ«āti vadÄmÄ«āti. But in any case, these five faculties are not barren, I say.ā
