Sodabun

Sodabun

The Thai pronunciation for the Pali word “Sotapanna”. This describes the 1st stage of liberation in Buddhism, where a person becomes a “stream winner”, or a “stream enterer”, who will be fully liberated as an Arahant and be free from the cycle of death and rebirth after no more than 7 lifetimes. For these individuals, rebirth in the 4 Apayas is also completely eradicated.
