"Sasava" is not exactly praise.

it seems like you may have not read the excerpts i quoted

Irrelevant to the topic.

definitely not irrelevent

it seems like you may have missed the Snake Sutta i posted

the Buddha listed his followers as sixfold:

1. arahants
2. non-returners
3. once-returners
4. stream-enterers
5. dhamma-followers
6. faith-followers

as i said, for faith followers, the Pali suttas also show the Buddha taught a kind of 'Tantra', where faith & love in the Triple Gem served as objects of devotion
