In the Satipattana Sutta (Four Foundations of Mindfulness) the Buddha talked about the "fetters" that arises from our sense contacts (eyes, ears, nose, etc.). Can you please explain what is meant with "fetters" and how we can use this teaching in our practice.

Please speak about Stream-Entry, the conditions for it and the effects of it. What are the steps on the way and how do you recognize that you have achieved stream-entry? How possible is it for lay people in the West to become a Stream-Enterer?
