70 See Dutt (1960: 252–71), Lamotte (1988: 611–20), Katz (1982: 83–95) and
Guenther (1974: 195–215).
71 See Gombrich (1996: 96–134), Guenther (1974: 231–2).
72 I am largely following Dutt (1960: 252–71), Katz (1982: 83–95) and BD.
73 Whether this is the highest of the puthujjana or the lowest of noble persons is
still problematic. See Dutt (1960: 253–4), Katz (1982: 92–3).
74 The spiritual faculties are five: faith, energy, mindfulness, concentration and
insight.
75 According to Gombrich (1996: 107–10) these two terms originally refered to the
same person. Also see Katz (1982: 93).
76 The pure faculties (anAsavaindriyA ) are anaññAtaññassAmCtindriya, aññindriya,
and aññAtAvindriya. See Horner (1936: 161–77).
77 Katz (1982: 94) regards kolaWkola and ekabCjin as sub-categories of a oncereturner
(sakadAgAmin).
78 In the AbhidharmakoUabhALya, antarAparinirvAyin is interpreted as ‘one who
obtains nirvana in the intermediate existence’ (La Vallée Poussin 1923: 966).
For antarAparinibbAyin, see Somaratne (1999: 121–54).
79 In the AbhidharmakoUabhALya, upapadyaparinirvAyin is interpreted as ‘one who
obtains nirvana immediately after being reborn’ (La Vallée Poussin 1923: 966).
80 For these two releases, see Gombrich (1996: 110–34).
81 The old list of the seven noble persons can be found in MN I p. 477. See also
Gombrich (1996: 96–107).
82 Ñyaoamoti (1976: 770). The AbhidharmakoUabhALya (La Vallée Poussin
1923: 966) explains them in a slightly different manner. See also Guenther
(1974: 231–2).
83 It does not mean that the person has acquired the faculty of faith only, but
means that he is also under the impulse of another four faculties (La Vallée
Poussin 1923: 1016).
84 In the AbhidharmakoUabhALya (La Vallée Poussin 1923: 977–9, 1016), kAyasAkLin
is the one who has realised nirodhasamApatti.

87 The AbhidharmakoUabhALya (La Vallée Poussin 1923: 1016) does not specifically
mention the faculty of insight.
88 If we follow the traditional list of the seven noble persons, it could be
saddhAnusArin.
