【英汉对照佛学词典】


(ma^na). 'pride,' 'arrogance,' 'self-conceit.' The habit of depending upon the ego, considering oneself higher or better than others. This affliction affects even very advanced practitioners. In the Abhidharmako/sa-bha^sya it is one of the indeterminate elements, while in the doctrine of the Yoga^ca^ra school, it is one of the six primary defilements 六烦恼. The category of pride is also subdivided into seven or nine types, in which case ma^na is also the first of the seven. [阿毗达磨俱舍释论 1559.29.254b28]
