Thanks for the translation lal. It looks quit similar to Bodhi’s, at least the message.
When you say that one is born with fixed set of five faculties what do you exactly mean? I have understood that we can develop and cultivate these five faculties and they can become strenghts. In that sense they do not seem to be fixed?
SN48.12 says, the arahant has completed and fulfilled those five faculties and the other nobel stages in a lesser degree. Most weak are they in a faith follower. They are developed and cultivated SN48.20.
