sakkāya-diṭṭhi: 'personality-belief', is the first of the 10 fetters (saṃyojana).
It is entirely abandoned only on reaching the path of Stream-winning (Sotāpatti-magga; s. ariya-puggala).
There are 20 kinds of personality-belief, which are obtained by applying 4 types of that belief to each of the 5 groups of existence (khandha, q.v.): (1-5) the belief to be identical with corporeality,
feeling, perception, mental formations or consciousness; (6-10) to be contained in them; (11-15) to be independent of them; (16-20) to be the owner of them (M. 44; S. XXII. 1). See prec., diṭṭhi, upādāna 4
