32b: The 14th Rains Retreat (Rāhula) – 1073
Saṁsāra, not even in a dream, for the non-arising of rebirth, which is the
truth of the cessation of suffering.
When the two Yakkha friends had heard these Dhamma verses, both of them
attained Stream-entry (
Sotāpatti-phala
) as the verses came to an end. As soon as
the two friends become noble Stream-enterers (
Sotāpanna
), their original
ugliness and bad looks disappeared. With a bright golden complexion and
bedecked in Deva ornaments, they assumed an appearance that was pleasant to
beholders.
