Purity in Buddhism : ウィキペディア英語版 | Purity in Buddhism Purity (''suddha'') is an important concept within much of Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism, although the implications of the resultant moral purification may be viewed differently in the varying traditions. The aim is to purify the personality of the Buddhist practitioner so that all moral and character defilements and defects (''kleshas'' such as anger, ignorance and lust) are wiped away and Nirvana can be obtained. == Theravada Understanding of Purity ==
Theravada Buddhism regards the path of self-purification as absolutely vital for the reaching of nibbana/nirvana. The main task of the Theravada Buddhist monk is to eradicate moral and character flaws through meditation and moral cultivation, in alliance with the cultivation of insight (''panna''/ ''prajna''), so that the purity of nibbana can be achieved. So important is this notion of purity in Theravada Buddhism that the famed Buddhist monk and commentator, Buddhaghosa, composed a central thesis on dhamma (Buddhism) called ''The Path of Purity'' (''Visuddhi-magga'').
