Hi Lal,

“If a Sotapanna attains an Ariya jhana, he/she will be born in a brahma realm and WILL NOT come back to human realm or even deva realm.”

Does this Sotāpanna need to maintain his Ariya jhana until the last moments before death in order to be reborn in Brahma realm? If this Sotāpanna has attained Ariya jhana once in this lifetime and he does not practise meditation anymore for the rest of his life, will he still get reborn into the Brahma realm?
