The ''Abhidharmakośa'' or ''Treasury of Abhidharma'' is a key text on the abhidharma written in Sanskrit verse by Vasubandhu in the 4th or 5th century. It summarizes the Sarvāstivādin tenets in eight chapters with a total of around 600 verses. The text was widely respected and used by schools of Buddhism in India, Tibet and East Asia. Vasubandhu wrote a commentary to his own work called the ''Abhidharmakośabhāsya''. In it, he critiques the interpretations of the Sarvāstivādins and others of the tenets he presented in that work from the Vaibhāṣika perspective. This commentary includes an additional chapter in prose refuting the idea of the "person" (''pudgala'') favoured by some Buddhists. However, later Sarvāstivādin master Samghabhadra considered that he misrepresented their school in the process, and at this point designated Vasubandhu as a Sautrāntika (upholder of the sutras) rather than as an upholder of the Abhidharma. ==Chapters== An English translation of the chapter titles, including the title of the 9th chapter of Vasubandhu's commentary, is: ::1: The Dhātus ::2: The Indriyas ::3: The World ::4: Karma ::5: The Latent Defilements ::6: The Path and the Saints ::7: The Knowledges ::8: The Absorptions ::9: Refutation of the Pudgala 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abhidharma-kosa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
