I ever discuss with Thai webboard, why Phra Bahiya could be arahantship very fast or why vipassana occured very fast.
Someone thaugt that :-
1. He did a lot of vipassana from his previous live. (See. #4) He was willing to die for meditation.
2. Before he knew there was Buddha, he understood that he was arahant. But the moment he knew there was Buddha, he suddently beleive devata and put many effort to see Buddha. This mean he 100% beleiving Buddha.
3. Buddha did not teach him the first met. May Buddha needed to claim down something in Bahiya mind, waited and seen when Bahiya mind was ready to know dhamma.
Just someone's view. Nobody knew the fact.
IMO. The stream enterer also need vipassana.
