Ānantariya: Immediacy, is a name for that Concentration of Mind which is associated with the profound and shocking Insight vipassanā that is present in any one of the 4 kinds of supra-mundane path Consciousness see: Ariya-puggala, and which therefore is the cause of the immediately following fruition phala Consciousness. According to the Abhidhamma, this path-moment of the Stream-enterer Sotapanna & the other Nobles is generated by the Insight into the Impermanence, misery and impersonality of all existence, reaching a certain threshold at that very moment and thus instantly transforming and ennobling the individual nature forever. It is mentioned under the name of ānantarika-Samādhi in the Ratana Sutta Sn. v. 22 and in Pts.M. 1, Ñānakathā.
