SN 22:109 The Sotapanna

Translated from the Pali by M. O' C. Walshe

[At Savatthi the Blessed One said:] “Monks, there are these five groups of clinging. What five? The body-group of clinging, the feeling-group, the perception-group, the mental-formations-group, the consciousness-group of clinging.

“And when, monks, the Ariyan disciple understands as they really are the arising and passing away, the attractiveness and the danger, and the deliverance from the five groups of clinging, he is called an Ariyan disciple who is a Stream-Winner, not liable to states of woe, assured of final enlightenment.”
