I have a chat with ChatGPT on the term “sappurisa” for the following suttas: SN 45.25, MN 113, MN 110, AN 5.148, DN 33, DN 34, AN 7.64, SN 45.26, AN 4.201, AN 2.31, AN 4.73, SN 55.5 and SN 55.55.
The below is a chart by ChatGPT on “Sappurisa in Various Suttas – Traits & Moral vs Noble Emphasis”
Here’s the chart mapping each sutta to the sappurisa traits it emphasizes and showing whether it points more toward a “moral person” or a “noble person.”
From this, you can see that SN 55.5 and SN 55.55 clearly use sappurisa in a “noble person” sense, while others often emphasize moral integrity and right view without necessarily implying noble attainment.
