In this episode, Martino talks about the Buddhist keyword “arhat,” with its meaning in the context of mainstream Buddhist schools, and how, in the Mahāyāna, the ideal of the arhat is considered inferior to that of both the bodhisattva and the buddha.
Discussed in this episode: “arhat,” or “worthy one:” a being who has eradicated all afflictions (kleśa) and will not be reborn, as they will enter nirvāṇa upon death. This state is achieved by overcoming the ten fetters that bind one to the cycle of rebirth, including ignorance, craving, and the belief in a permanent self.
