ways (ākāras) and the sākṣātkāra of duḥkha
satya, (b) knowledge of the four arya satyas in ten
ways, (c) laukika agra dharmas, (d) traits of an anāgāmi-pudgala, (e) the five ānantarya karmans, (f) the determinative orientation of mind (ādhimo
kșika manaskāra) and the mental orientation regarding loneliness (prāvivekya manaskāra),
