Are you a noble person? Yes I am! No I am not!
Present days many are popular with many levels in the path of dharma. While few say I’m Arihat some even say I’m Buddha… and there are thousands of sowan people too…
When we share Dharma with others most of the time people ask what is your level in the dharma path? What is the highest level you achieved so far? Are you sowan? Are you Arihat? Etc…
So think about this little fact from your own mind & level of your own intelligence.
Anyone can say any level as the way they wish…
Also with the previous post you already know what the reasons are to tell…
Let’s assume one ask from me “Are you Sowan or Arihat? What is the qualifications you have to write dharma like this and tell this is the Dharma for Nirvana?”
This is a very common question and that is why I even wanted to write this post for the benefit of all of you…
If one asks such a question, I can say I'm sowan or in a higher level...
With this answer possibly 2 main things can happen…

1. You don't believe me! And you start insult and ignore the fact I told u... and IF I TRULY ACHIEVE the levels I told to you then you are really in trouble… because the way you behave will become the cause to give evil effects to you as you are insulted to a noble person.
2. You believe me! You accepted the fact I told you with respect just because I told u... And you start to believe whatever I'm telling you because you believe that I TRULY ACHIEVE a level and a noble person to believe.
Now what is the betterment you gain through both ways? NOTHING!
Why I say like that?
Because if you insult to a noble person then the effect will be evil without a doubt as you insulted someone who’s higher than you. Then again with respect you believe everything what told by that person and accept it just because he / she is noble in your belief and you simply misleading without even knowing you are misleading. The truth is nothing to do with belief. It is possible to see through your own wisdom and that is why you are become a human being with the mind with thinking abilities.
Before you ask the question “Are you a noble person?” what is better to do?
First read or listen what they say or write as Dharma…
And then use your own level of wisdom to understand them…
There is nothing to do with the level of the person who write or preach dharma to you as long as you don’t have ability to analyses them and you didn’t have the appropriate attention of your mind for them.
With the content and the level of you understood them you can use them to your practical life to gain the betterment for you… if you feel you gain peace and if you feel you get rid of desires, hatred & ignorance with the understanding you gain then look for the person who told the way to you… who preached the dharma to you…
Always suitable to put “Who” as the and better to put “What” in first to gain the betterment for you… then only you will be able to come to an conclusion…
If you come to the conclusion at the very beginning with the answer you got for the question you asked as “Are you a noble person?” then you are really in trouble.
In Samma Sambuddha’s time on one asked “What is your qualification to tell the truth… are you noble or not…” they just went with their questions and when the Samma Sambuddha gave the solution they just think about them with their own mind and understood. There were 62 false views available on that period and still the same… no one can clean the world from these false views or teachings. Only possible things to do are use your own mind to understand the pure teaching and practice it till you get the best results.
So first clarify what exactly you want… there will be millions of so call noble person and their path available under the name of nirvana and pure dharma but what exactly you want will find you when you need it the most… till that you will just mislead with the questions you asked and the answers you gets.
The more you ask the question “Are you a noble person?” or “what is the qualification you have to prove that this is the pure path to nirvana?” the more the fake people will arise with the tag of “NOBLE” and the more certificate will be issued and more class will open to give the qualification of noble…
So be wise… not for others… but for yourself…because there is no one out there to save you! What we believe or what we don’t believe doesn’t matter to change the truth. So let the truth become truth while you follow the correct path through your own understanding to experience the truth!
May triple gem bless you for the best!
