Hello Siebe Sir
May the blessings of the Triple Gem be with you always !
Thanks for your reply.
At the Sotapanna stage, only 3 sanyojanas i.e., “Sakkaya ditthi”, “Silabbata paramasa” and “Vicikiccha” are removed.
“Mana” is one of the last sanyojanas to be removed ONLY at the Arahant stage.
I think “mana” can not be removed at the Sotapanna stage.
My point is that – for attaining the Sotapanna stage, the necessary thing is the “correct understanding” of Aniccha, Dukkha, Anatta. This is the point that I was focusing in the above post.
