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:
“When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither increases nor diminishes. But as it is certain there is a great difference betwixt the simple conception of the existence of an object, and the belief of it, and as this difference lies not in the parts or composition of the idea which we conceive; it follows, that it must lie in the manner in which we conceive it.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“The only questions worth asking today are whether humans are going to have any emotions tomorrow, and what the quality of life will be if the answer is no.”
—Lester Bangs (1948–1982)
