"In this community of monks there are monks who, with the total ending of [the first] three fetters*, are stream-winners, steadfast, never again destined for states of woe**, headed for self-awakening..."
*Fetters- Please see the labels
**Ending states of woe - (States of Deprivation -apaya)-'Hell is ended; animal wombs are ended; the state of the hungry shades is ended; states of deprivation, destitution, the bad bourns are ended. (Also see: Who is a stream-winner ? )
