Lal,
“No progress can be made outside the Buddha Sasana”.
Thank you.
‘a Sotapanna (or a Sakadagami anugami) may not make any progress in a particular human birth (due to unfavourable conditions) …” what if that applied to all the births of that human bhava, that is that bhava itself, will that bhava ‘count’ as one of those still left at that time (for no progress has been made) yet one more bhava will have been gone through? Or…dhammata will work against that eventuality. Is that it?
I want to clear this.
And…. Lvalio: thank you for your kind and sincere words and for your contributions. I feel deeply grateful.
May you attain the Deathless!
