I know that a sotappana has an understanding of the dhamma that’s why he won’t be born in an apaya as no extreme desire in the mind. I have mentioned that the sensual desires if pursued blindly would lead one to be trapped in believing it to be a source of happiness.
Also the civil services exam part, many people who are even wealthy and enjoy comforts take part in such exams just for pride and honour, that too comes under the same thing I mentioned earlier. I know strong kama raga is dangerous in any form and I was specifically asking for the sexual pleasure part and how society influences it. And I hope that the exam part was not a taunt on me from your side after our disagreement on this topic on whatsapp, as you know that I am also appearing for those exams not to enjoy some nonsense pride but because I don’t have anything except for education as I too belong to the dalit category and you know that very well.
