Dear Nina

Again, thanks a lot for your reply.

N:
2. asamaya vimutto: arahatta who is sukkha vipassaka, who has eradicated all
asavas, because he sees dhamma by pa~n~naa. Alternatively: all ariyans are
asamaya vimutto, because they obtained ariyan vimokkha successively: there
isn't any time that such freedom can decline again.
Maybe this helps when reading the texts.

I am glad to know I didn't misinterpret the commentary. But it's really strange that two English translation and one Chinese translation of that passage suggest asamayavimutto attains eight vimokkhas....This is a matter of Pali Grammar. Anyway, Thanks a lot.
