Then the Buddha robed up in the morning and, taking his bowl and robe, went to the home of K\u0101\u1e37igodh\u0101 the Sakyan lady, where he sat down on the seat spread out. Then K\u0101\u1e37igodh\u0101 went up to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down to one side. The Buddha said to her: \u201cGodh\u0101, a female noble disciple who has four things is a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, assured, destined for awakening. What four? It\u2019s when a female noble disciple has experiential confidence in the Buddha \u2026 the teaching \u2026 the Sa\u1e45gha \u2026 And she lives at home with heart rid of the stain of stinginess, freely generous, open-handed, loving to let go, committed to charity, loving to give and to share. A female noble disciple who has these four things is a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, assured, destined for awakening.\u201d \u201cSir, these four factors of stream-entry that were taught by the Buddha are found in me, and I exhibit them. For I have experiential confidence in the Buddha \u2026 the teaching \u2026 the Sa\u1e45gha \u2026 And I share without reservation all the gifts available to give in our family with those who are ethical and of good character.\u201d \u201cYou\u2019re fortunate, Godh\u0101, so very fortunate, You have declared the fruit of stream-entry.\u201d","title":"With K\u0101\u1e37igodh\u0101","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":240}
