Mada (Sanskrit; Tibetan phonetic: ''gyakpa '') is a Buddhist term translated as "self-satisfaction", "self-infatuation", or "mental inflation". It is identified as one of the twenty subsidiary unwholesome mental factors within the Mahayana Abhidharma teachings. In this context, it is defined as having excessive pride or vanity based on attachment to ones own good fortune, such as possessing youth, good health, or material wealth.〔Guenther (1975), Kindle Locations 923-924.〕〔Kunsang (2004), p. 28.〕 ==Definitions== The Abhidharma-samuccaya states: :What is ''mada''? It is joy and rapture associated with attachment (raga) because one sees as excellences the prospect of a long life and other fragile good things by trusting ones youth and good health. Its function is to provide a basis for all basic and proximate emotions.〔 Herbert Guenther explains: :It is an inflated mind which is full of joy and rapture in view of health, abundance of pleasure, etc. It is the root of unconcern (pramāda) by generating all other emotions.〔 Mipham Rinpoche states: :Mada is to have excessive pride or vanity due to any kind of fascination with or attachment towards any kind of conditioned prosperity possessed by oneself, such as good health and youthfulness. It forms a support for the six root unwholesome mental factors and twenty subsidiary unwholesome mental factors.〔 Alexander Berzin explains: :Smugness or conceit (rgyags-pa) is a part of longing desire (raga). From seeing signs of a long life or of any other samsaric glory, based on being healthy, young, wealthy, and so on, smugness is a puffed-up mind that feels happy about and takes pleasure in this.〔Berzin (2006)〕 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「Mada (Buddhism)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
