Hi all,

Another wonderful post on Sakkāya Diṭṭhi, very timely for those of us working toward sotapanna anugami.

Just curious: for those with more experience on weakening Sakkāya Diṭṭhi, does it happen more “outside in” or “inside out”?

By “outside in”, I’m thinking of a sequence like:

Material possessions (cars, houses) –> non material possessions (social status, fame) –> relationships (friends, family members) –> body and mind (culmination)

Or does it happen more “inside out”, losing Sakkāya Diṭṭhi with body and mind, and external things are then taken care of.

Thank you,
Lang
