Some texts give the idea that attaining 1st path (stream-entry) eliminates some emotions, 2nd path eliminates greed and hatred, and a fully-awakened person has transcended all anger, all lust, all hatred.
Do you agree with this? It seems plausible to me, from my limited experience of the mind, that an awakened person can still go through the motions of these, but don’t suffer from them; the phenomenology will have changed so the emotions present in a spacious way experienced with awareness, but the emotions haven’t vanished.
Note that even the arahats (setting aside the Buddha) still have what is called vasana, past impressions that remain, such as the Venerable Pilindavaccha who although an arahat addressed people as vasala because he had been a brahmin for many lives.
Must be very peaceful indeed to be free from greed, anger, and delusion.
So without those what emotions would you have left? Loving Kindness, Compassion and understanding etc. There are likely positive emotions.
I note that Ven Ananda was a stream enterer and still cried when the Buddha died. But the Arahantas are unmoved by such things. That is pretty strong detachment.
The most interesting thing I ever learnt from abhidhamma is that anytime you have mental pain that is included in the spectrum of anger. Only an unwholesome mind has mental pain. So I am looking forward to a time when I am wise enough to escape from mental pain.
