Where have they been reborn in the next life?\u201d \u201c\u0100nanda, the monk Asoka passed away having realized the undefiled freedom of heart and freedom by wisdom \u2026 in this very life \u2026 (And all is explained as in SN 55.8.) This is that mirror of the teaching. A noble disciple who has this may declare of themselves: \u2018I\u2019ve finished with rebirth in hell, the animal realm, and the ghost realm. I\u2019ve finished with all places of loss, bad places, the underworld. I am a stream-enterer!
