Hello Akvan Sir
Theruvan saranai

Thanks a lot for your insightful explanations.

You rightly said that : “So it is by comprehending the aniccha, dukka, anatta nature of the world that one moves away from miccha ditti, and gradually loses sakkaya ditti and later attanu ditti.
Another aspect to consider is, if Sakkaya Ditti actually means the complete removal of the conceit “I am” (as translated and commonly understood in most instances), then why should there be other aspects like Attanu Ditti and Asmee maana, which are removed after sakkaya ditti is removed?”

Yes I also agree with you. “Mana” is removed ONLY at the Arahant stage and not at the Sotapanna stage.

May you attain Nibbana in this life itself !!!
