2002 Abhidhamma Jnr1 Part 2 Qn 5

Name the Supramundane wholesome cittas (magga cittas). What is significant about these cittas?
  1. Sotapattimaggacittam (path consciousness of a Stream winner)
  2. Sakadagamimaggacittam (path consciousness of a once returner)
  3. Anagamimaggacittam (path consciousness of a non returner)
  4. Arahatamaggacittam (path consciousness of a worthy one)
These are the 4 paths consciousness to each respective stage fo Sainthood. They arise only for one thought moment and give rise to their respective fruition consciousness (phala cittam) where by the being would have attained that stage of sainthood from then onwards.
