Description
This book covers the eighteen treatises of the original scripture of Vibhanga, the second book of the Theravada Abhidhamma corpus. A total of 273 tables, 30 diagrams, and lucidly-defined outlines of points and summaries are used extensively throughout this book to present the contents of the original text as lively as possible to readers. The treatises are divided into three distinct groups. The first group containing the Five Aggregates, Twelve Sense-Bases, Eighteen Elements, Four Noble Truths, Twenty-Two Controlling Faculties, and Dependent Origination, are the fundamental requisites for developing our right views and wisdom. The second group contains the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, Four Right Strivings, Four Means to Accomplishment, Seven Factors of Enlightenment, Noble Eightfold Path, and Jhana, provide the basis for practicing wisdom using the different approaches, all of which are interdependent modular functions connecting one to another. The third group contains the Illimitables, Precepts, Analytical Insight, kinds of Knowledge, numerical list of defilement, and kernel of the Buddha’s teaching — provide supplementary information illuminated in extensive details not apropos to being dealt with in the preceding twelve Chapters.
