Better than sole sovereignty over the earth,
better than going to heaven,
better even than lordship over all the worlds
is the supramundane Fruition of Stream Entrance.
– DhammaPada Verse 178
The fruition of stream entrance is a phrase for awakening to the truth of enlightenment.
Awakening to the truth of enlightenment is not easy, however, it is also not hard. By learning the teachings of the Buddha with active reflection, and applying them to independently verify, one awakens to the truth of enlightenment gradually.
