“Furthermore, a noble disciple is wise. He has the wisdom of arising and passing away which is noble, penetrative, and leads to the complete ending of suffering. This is the fourth kind of stream of merit, stream of wholesomeness that generates happiness. These are the four kinds of streams of merit, streams of wholesomeness that generate happiness.”
