[1][than][olds] Thus have I heard:
Once the Exalted One was dwelling near Sāvatthī,
at Jeta Grove,
in Anāthapiṇḍika's Park.
There the Exalted One addressed the monks, saying:
"Monks."
"Yes, lord," they replied,
and the Exalted One said:
"Monks, these are the six advantages in realizing the fruit of Streamwinning.
What six?
There is certainty in Saddhamma,
no liableness to fall away,
none of the ill of the restricted,[1]
there is the knowledge which cannot be imparted,
cause is rightly discerned by one
and the causal origin of things.
Verily, monks, these are the six advantages in realizing the fruit of Streamwinning.'
