修道

Pronunciations

Basic Meaning: path of [meditative] cultivation

Senses:

  • (Skt. bhāvanā-mārga; ) The fourth of the five stages 五位 in the Abhidharma/Yogâcāra path scheme, the second of the three supramundane paths 三道. After the experience of the Path of Seeing 見道, the practitioner renews his/her efforts based on this new insight, seeking further accordance with reality. In this path one removes the deeply embedded innate afflictions (倶生, 思惑), whereas in the prior path of seeing one removes the less deeply embedded active afflictions (分別起, 見惑). In the Abhidharmakośa, the entry into this stage is equivalent to that of stream winner 預流 (Tib. bsgom pa'i lam). 〔瑜伽論T 1579.30.313b2 〕 [Charles Muller; source(s): Ui, Nakamura,YBh-Ind, JEBD]
  • To cultivate the Way; to practice the Dao (Skt. mārga-bhāvana). [Charles Muller]
