Existence of Aryans Today
Most of highly reputed Bhikkhu, today, argue this topic, "Whether Aryans do exists?".
Who are the Aryans? Aryans are those who have attained one of the four stages of Arya Magga (the path to Nirvana). These four stages are Sovan Phalaya, Sakurdagami Palaya, Anagami Palaya and Arhath Palaya. To attain first step of the Magga, a meditator should obtain Samadhi in his/her mind. He should reach dyana 1,2,3 and 4. (Some Buddhist scholars argue that attain Dyana is not necessary). After having attained mindfulness (dyana), one can prohceed to Vidarshana as the Buddha described. The way of Vidarshana is in Satipattana Suthra which is the only way to attain Nibbana. He/she who follows the four sections correctly, the Kayanupassana, the Cittanupassana, the Dhammanupassana and the Vedananupassana as described in the Sathpattana Suthra, he/she definitely attains Nibbana in the same Bhawa or the present Athma. However, many followers of Buddhism under the name of the Dhamma do not understand this truth. Since they do not understand the Path, they believe that there are no Aryans today. If one pretends to be that he has attained one of the four stagess to get some benefits, such a person should be condemned according to the Dhamma. This writer is from Sri Lanka. Many Bikkhus and normal followers in this island have reached to this ultimate goal and however, they do not boast about their success. If Aryans are not in the world today, the Damma is not Akalika. Akalika means for ever, for the past, for the present and for the future. If Damma is Akalika, the followers will also attain Sovan Phala, Sakudhagami Phala, Anagami Phala and ultimately Nibbana.

Famous quotes containing the words existence of, existence and/or today:
“I consider, then, the power to annul a law of the United States, assumed by one state, incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the letter of the Constitution, unauthorized by its spirit, inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded, and destructive of the great object for which it was formed.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“Did men but consider that the sun, moon, and stars, and every other object of the senses, are only so many sensations in their minds, which have no other existence but barely being perceived, doubtless they would never fall down and worship their own ideas; but rather address their homage to that eternal invisible Mind which produces and sustains all things.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
“The late Président de Montesquieu told me that he knew how to be blind—he had been so for such a long time—but I swear that I do not know how to be deaf: I cannot get used to it, and I am as humiliated and distressed by it today as I was during the first week. No philosophy in the world can palliate deafness.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
