__NOTOC__ The ''Vimuttimagga'' ("Path of Freedom") is a Buddhist practice manual, traditionally attributed to the Arahant Upatissa (c. 1st or 2nd century〔Vimuttimagga & Visuddhimagga - A Comparative Study. PV Bapat, lv〕). It was translated into Chinese in the sixth century as the ''Jietuo dao lun'' 解脫道論 by Sanghapala. The original text (possibly Pali or Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit) is no longer extant, but the work has survived in Chinese. The book was probably written in India and then later brought to Sri Lanka.〔Vimuttimagga & Visuddhimagga - A Comparative Study. PV Bapat, lv〕 According to Bhikkhu Analayo, some doctrines of the Vimuttimagga seem to be associated with those attributed to the Abhayagiri monastery by Dhammapāla.〔Analayo, The Treatise on the Path to Liberation (解脫道論) and the Visuddhimagga〕 == Contents == The Vimuttimagga recommends various meditation practices such as Anapanasati, Kasina meditation and Buddha-anussati - recollection of the virtues of the Buddha. Its chapters are (based on the translation by Ehara, Soma & Kheminda): # Introductory Discourse (referencing the three trainings and ultimate freedom)〔This chapter's introductory stanza in Pali is: "'Sīlaṃ samādhi paññā ca, vimutti ca anuttarā; Anubuddhā ime dhammā, gotamena yasassinā.'" This verse can be found in both the Mahāparinibbāna Sutta (DN 16) and the Anubuddha Sutta (AN 4.1). Vajira & Story (1998) translate this verse as: "Virtue, concentration, wisdom, and emancipation unsurpassed — These are the principles realized by Gotama the renowned....'"〕 # On Distinguishing Virtue # On Austerities # On Distinguishing Concentration # On Approaching a Good Friend # The Distinguishing of Behavior # The Distinguishing of the Subjects of Meditation # Entrance into the Subject of Meditation # The Five Forms of Higher Knowledge # On Distinguishing Wisdom # The Five Methods (aggregates, sense organs, elements, conditioned arising, truth) # On Discerning Truth 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「Vimuttimagga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
