I noticed a contradiction. We agree that when one attains Nirodha samapatti, one automatically becomes an arahant, correct?
This is sutta central explaining : The fortnight between realizing stream-entry while still a student of Sañjaya (Kd 1:23.5.6) and arahantship while overhearing the Buddha teach Dīghanakha (MN 74:5.1).
- How can he become an arahant again if he has already realized nirodha samapatti? The explanation that makes the most sense to me is that he developed nirodha samapatti after becoming an arahant.
