Manas-vijnana (Skt. manas-vijñāna; "mind-knowledge", compare ''man-tra'', jñāna) is the seventh of the eight consciousnesses as taught in Yogacara and Zen Buddhism, the higher consciousness or intuitive consciousness that on the one hand localizes experience through thinking and on the other hand universalizes experience through intuitive perception of the universal mind of alayavijnana. Manas-vijnana, also known as klista-manas-vijnana or simply manas, is not to be confused with ''manovijnana'' which is the sixth consciousness. == Overlapping Pali terms for "mind" == According to Bhikkhu Bodhi, the post-canonical Pali commentary uses the three terms ''viññāa'', ''mano'' and ''citta'' as synonyms for the mind sense base (''mana-ayatana''); however, in the Sutta Pitaka, these three terms are generally contextualized differently: * ''Viññāa'' refers to awareness through a specific internal sense base, that is, through the eye, ear, nose, tongue, body or mind. Thus, there are six sense-specific types of ''Viññāa''. It is also the basis for personal continuity within and across lives. * ''Manas'' refers to mental "actions" (''kamma''), as opposed to those actions that are physical or verbal. It is also the sixth internal sense base (''ayatana''), that is, the "mind base," cognizing mental sensa (''dhammā'') as well as sensory information from the physical sense bases. * ''Citta'' includes the formation of thought, emotion and volition; this is thus the subject of Buddhist mental development (''bhava''), the mechanism for release.〔Bodhi (2000b), pp. 769-70, ''n''. 154.〕 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「Manas-vijnana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
