For
the disciples of the noble one, there are specific considerations:
- Bhabba Satta: Whether, or not,
there is a master to teach, they are capable of attaining enlightenment on
their own.
- Buddha Veneyya Satta: They can only
achieve emancipation if the Buddha is available to preach to them.
- Sangha Veneyya Satta: After the absolute
extinction of the Master, only if the noble Sangha is still available and
they are ready, this group of Sattas can gain the transcendent state of
mind, progressing steadily.
- Abhabba Satta: No matter how hard
they exert themselves; they have no chance of achieving Nirvanic
progression in the current birth. However, their efforts are not in vain
as they hold the potential to gain spiritual nobility in future births.
Furthermore,
Buddhism is the Doctrine and Discipline of Karma, which refers to the fruitful
nature of wholesome and unwholesome actions one undertakes. No labor is without
its consequences; that is the matter.
