Abhidhamma in Daily Life Abhidhamma in daily life Nina Van Gorkom Preface -ooOoo- The Buddha's teachings, contained in the 'Tipitaka' (Three Baskets) are: the Vinaya (Book of Discipline for the monks) , the Suttanta (Discourse) , the Abhidhamma. All three parts of the Tipitaka can be an inexhaustible source of inspiration and encouragement to the practice, leading to the eradication of wrong view and eventually of the other defilements. In all three parts of the Tipitaka we are taught about 'dhamma' , about everything which is real. Seeing is a dhamma, it is real. Colour is a dhamma, it is real. Feeling is a dhamma, it is real. Our defilements are dhammas, they are realities. When the Buddha attained enlightenment he clearly knew all dhammas as they really are. He taught Dhamma to us in order that we also may know realities as they are. Without the Buddha's teaching we would be ignorant of reality. We are inclined to take for permanent what is impermanent, for pleasant what is sorrowful, for self what is not self. The aim of all three parts of the Tipitaka is to teach people the development of the way leading to the end of defilements. The Vinaya contains the rules for the monks for the living to perfection of the 'brahman life'. The goal of the 'brahman life' is the eradication of all defilements. Not only the monks, but also laypeople should study the Vinaya. We read about the instances that monks deviated from their purity of life; when there was such a case, a rule was laid down in order to help them to be watchful. When we read the Vinaya we are reminded of our own lobha (attachment), dosa (aversion) and moha (ignorance), they are realities. As long as they are not eradicated they can arise any time. We are reminded how deeply rooted defilements are and what they can lead to. When one considers this, one is urged to develop the Eightfold Path which leads to the eradication of wrong view, jealousy, stinginess, conceit and all other defilements. In the Suttanta, Dhamma is explained to different people at different places. The Buddha taught about all realities appearing through the six doors, about cause and effect, about the practice leading to the end of all sorrow. As regards the Abhidhamma, this is an exposition of all realities in detail. 'Abhi' literally means 'higher', thus ' Abhidhamma' means 'higher dhamma'. The form of this part of the Tipitaka is different, but the aim is the same: the eradication of wrong view and eventually of all defilements. Thus, when we study the many enumerations of realities, we should not forget the real purpose of the study. The theory (pariyatti) should encourage us to the practice (patipatti) which is necessary for the realization of the truth (pativedha). While we are studying the different namas and rupas and while we are pondering over them, we can be reminded to be aware of nama and rupa appearing at that moment. In this way we will discover more and more that the Abhidhamma is about everything which is real, that is, the worlds appearing through the six doors. This book is meant as an introduction to the study of the Abhidhamma. I hope that the reader, instead of being discouraged by the many enumerations and by the Pali terms which are used, will develop a growing interest in the realities to be experienced in and around himself. Miss Sujin Boriharnwanaket has been of immense assistance and inspiration to me in my study of the Abhidhamma. She encouraged me to discover for myself that the Abhidhamma is about realities to be experienced through eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body- sense and mind-door. Thus I learnt that the study of the Abhidhamma is a process which continues all through life. I hope that the reader will have a similar experience and that he will be full of enthusiasm and gladness every time he studies realities which can be experienced! I have quoted many times from the suttas in order to show that teaching contained in the Abhidhamma is no different from the teaching in the other parts of the Tipitaka. For the quotations I have mostly used the English translation of the 'Pali Text Society' (Translation Series). For the quotations from the 'Visuddhimagga' (Path of Purity) I have used the translation by Bhikkhu Nanamoli (Colombo, Sri Lanka,1964). I have added some questions after the chapters which may help the reader to ponder over what he has read. The venerable Phra Dhammadharo Bhikkhu gave me most helpful corrections and suggestions for the text of this book. Due to his effort the editing and printing of this book has been made possible. Nina Van Gorkom The Hague Netherlands 1975 Chapter 1 THE FOUR PARAMATTHA DHAMMAS There are two kinds of reality: mental phenomena (nama) and physical phenomena (rupa). Nama experiences something; rupa does not experience anything. Seeing is, for example, a type of nama; it experiences visible object. Visible object itself is rupa; it does not experience anything. What we take for self are only nama and rupa which arise and fall away. The 'Visuddhimagga' ('Path of Purity', a commentary) explains (Ch. XVIII, 25): For this has been said: - 'As with the assembly of parts. The word "chariot" is countenanced, So, When the khandhas are present, 'A being' is said in common usage' (Kindred Sayings I, 135). The five khandhas (aggregates) are nothing else but nama and rupa. (See Ch.2.) ... So in many hundred suttas there is only mentality-materiality which is illustrated, not a being, not a person. Therefore, just as when the component parts (of a chariot) such as axles, wheels, frame, poles... are arranged in a certain way, there comes to be the mere conventional term 'chariot', yet in the ultimate sense, when each part is examined, there is no chariot, ...so too,... there comes to be the mere conventional term 'a being', 'a person', yet in the ultimate sense, when each component is examined, there is no being as a basis for the assumption ' I am' or ' I ' ; in the ultimate sense there is only mentality-materiality. The vision of one who sees in this way is called correct vision. All phenomena in and around ourselves are only nama and rupa which arise and fall away; they are impermanent. Nama and rupa are absolute realities, in Pali: paramattha dhammas. We can experience their characteristics when they appear, no matter how we name them. Those who have developed 'insight' can experience them as they really are: impermanent and not self. The more we know different namas and rupas by experiencing their characteristics, the more we will see that 'self' is only a concept; it is not a paramattha dhamma. Nama and rupa are different types of realities. If we do not distinguish them from each other and learn the characteristic of each we will continue to take them for self. For example, hearing is nama; it has no form or shape. Hearing is different from ear-sense, but it has ear-sense as a necessary condition. The nama which hears experiences sound. Ear-sense and sound are rupas, which do not experience anything; they are entirely different from the nama which hears. If we do not learn that hearing, ear-sense and sound are realities which are altogether different from each other, we will continue to think that it is self which hears. The 'Visuddhimagga' (XVIII, 34) explains: Furthermore, nama has no efficient power, it cannot occur by its own efficient power... It does not eat, it does not drink, it does not speak, it does not adopt postures. And rupa is without efficient power; it cannot occur by its own efficient power. For it has no desire to eat, it has no desire to drink, it has no desire to speak, it has no desire to adopt postures. But rather it is when supported by rupa that nama occurs; and it is when supported by nama that rupa occurs. When nama has the desire to eat, the desire to drink, the desire to speak, the desire to adopt a posture, it is rupa that eats, drinks, speaks and adopts a posture.... Furthermore (XVIII, 36) we read: And just as men depend upon A boat for traversing the sea, So does the mental body need The matter-body for occurrence. And as the boat depends upon The men for traversing the sea, So does the matter-body need The mental body for occurrence. Depending each upon the other The boat and men go on the sea. And so do mind and matter both Depend the one upon the other. There are two kinds of conditioned nama: citta (consciousness) and cetasika (mental factors arising together with consciousness). They are namas which arise because of conditions and fall away again. As regards citta, citta knows or experiences an object. Each citta must have its object of knowing, in Pali: arammana. The citta which sees has what is visible as its object. The citta which hears (hearing-consciousness) has sound as its object. There isn't any citta without an object (arammana). Even when we are sound asleep, citta experiences an object. There are many different types of citta which can be classified in different ways. Some cittas are akusala (unwholesome), some are kusala (wholesome). Akusala cittas and kusala cittas are cittas which are causes. They can motivate unwholesome or wholesome deeds through body, speech or mind. Some cittas are vipakacittas, the result of unwholesome or wholesome deeds. Some cittas are kiriyacittas neither cause nor result. Cittas can be classified by way of jati' (literally means 'birth' or 'nature').

  • Summary of the 24 Paccaya by Sujin Boriharnwanaket Translated by Amara-Varee
    Summary of the 24 Paccaya by Sujin Boriharnwanaket translated by Amara-Varee When we understand the characteristics of the citta and cetasika that arise together and how each is the paccaya on which the other depends, one would gradually attenuate the attachment that mistakes realities for entities, people and the selves. In order to show that realities are truly daily life occurrences, I would like to talk about the first lobha-mula-citta namely somanassa-sahagatam ditthigata-sampayuttam asankharikam, which is the citta that arises with lobha, attachments, as hetu (cause). somanassa-sahagatam arise and evolve with somanassa-vedana ditthigata-sampayuttam arises concurrently with wrong view asankharikam without inducements As the first lobha-mula-citta arises and falls away with extreme rapidity, there must be as many as 19 cetasika arising with it. Each cetasika would be a distinct reality, but they must depend on one another to arise, perform their specific functions and then fall away. Since we do not know this, at the instant lobha-mula- citta arises there is 'us'. Therefore in just one single instant the lobha-mula-citta could show 'anattaness'. When we know that for the particular reality to arise there must be other realities arising concurrently as reciprocal paccaya, helping one another to arise. Without one another they could never arise at all. The first lobha-mula-citta has 19 cetasika concurrently arising. I would like to speak of the 19 cetasika that arise with the lobha-mula-citta, or the 13 annasamana-cetasika and the 6 akusala-cetasika. The annasamana cetasika comprise 7 sabba-citta-sadharana-cetasika and 6 pakinnaka-cetasika.

  • Kitagiri Sutta
    M 2.2.10 Majjhima Nikāya 2, Majjhimapaṇṇāsa 2, Bhikkhu Vagga 10 1 Kīṭā,giri Sutta The Discourse at Kīṭā,giri | M 70 Theme: Faith, learning and sainthood Translated by Piya Tan ©2005 1 Summary and comments 1.1 The Kīṭā,giri Sutta1 is about the position of faith (saddhā) in regards to sainthood. The sutta opens with the Buddha admonishing the monks not to take food at night for the sake of their health2 [§2]. When the Buddha and the community arrive at Kīṭā,giri, the monks admonish Assaji and Punabbasu,3 but they refuse to comply, replying that they found greater benefits of eating “in the evening, in the morning, in the day, outside the proper time” [§§4-5]. The Buddha summons and questions them [§6]. The Buddha admonishes Assaji and Punabbasu by giving instructions on feelings [§§6-10]. He goes on to show the importance of diligently doing one’s spiritual duties as renunciants [§§11-13]. The 7 kinds of saints are mentioned and defined [§§14-21]. The Buddha declares that the spiritual training is a gradual path [§§22-23] and rebukes the recalcitrant monks in one of the most moving passages in the Canon [§§24-27]. 1.2 Although Assaji and Punabbasu report to the Buddha as summoned and listen to his admonition, apparently they show little regard for him. At a crucial point in the admonition, when the Buddha actually offers to uplift them spiritually, saying: Bhikshus, there is a four-line exposition, and when it is recited a wise man would quickly understand it.

    'HIGHER REALITY', HIGHER LEARNING? CHALLENGING TRAINEE SCIENCE TEACHER’S CONCEPTIONS OF THE NATURE OF THE WORLD AND THE NATURE OF SCIENCE A. Weller University of East London (UNITED KINGDOM) Abstract The focus of this small-scale qualitative study is to explore an alternative way of gaining knowledge about the 'world' and the impact this has on pre-service secondary science trainees in England. Studies exist on the relationship between science and religion for example Ratanakul (2002) [1] and Thurow (2013) [2]. However, the relationship between science and religion is an under researched topic within Teacher Education. This study will examine the interplay between Buddhism and science with a particular emphasis on the Abhidhamma. Abhidhamma translates as 'higher reality' or 'higher teaching' from the Theravada tradition of Buddhism [3] It is the author’s opinion that this part of the scriptures has not been accessible to the English speaking community until recently. English translations of this part of the original text and English commentaries are now only just being made available to the public. Science trainees will not have been exposed to this before. This exploratory survey was in the context of the diverse urban background setting of East London. A 1.5 hour session was held at the university comprising 11 pre-service secondary science trainees. The session explored the idea that science has a concept of reality as its object of understanding and that Buddhism has a reality as its object of understanding. The underlying pedagogy behind the session was to use concepts in the right way to understand reality.

  • Abhidhamma and Practice
    Abhidhamma And Practice By Nina van Gorkom What is the cause of all misery and sorrow in the world? We read in the ‘Kindred Sayings’ (Vol. I, Ch. III, iii, par. 3, The World) that King Pasenadi asked the Buddha: ‘How many kinds of things, lord, that happen in the world, make for trouble, for suffering, for distress?’ The Buddha answered: ‘Three things, sire, happen of that nature. What are the three? Greed, hate, and delusion;- these three make for trouble, for suffering, for distress.’ In the Buddha’s time defilements were the cause of all sorrow and suffering and this is also true for today. It is true for all times. Only those who are perfected have no sorrow and suffering. The Buddha taught the solution to all problem: the eradication of all unwholesomeness through the development of right understanding; right understanding of all phenomena of our life. Is the eradication of our defilements really the solution to all problems in the world? Is it not a selfish attitude to be solely occupied with the eradication of one’s own defilements, and even more, is it possible to eradicate defilements? We cannot eradicate the defilements of others, “we” cannot even eradicate our own defilements. But when right understanding has been developed, it is right understanding which can gradually eradicate defilements. But this may take many lives. At this moment we are full of ignorance as to the phenomena of our live. We usually seek only ourselves and we serve our own interests. How could we then really serve other people? Detachment from ‘self’ is only possible through right understanding of the phenomena of our life.

  • Realities and Concepts Sujin Boriharnwanaket
    Realities and Concepts : the Buddha’s explanation of the world by Sujin Boriharnwanaket Transl. by Nina van Gorkom FOREWORD What is real and what is only concept? Or is anything real? We might think these perennial questions are the irrelevant musings of philosophers. In fact, as the following pages make clear, they are pertinent to every moment of our lives. More than 2500 years ago, Siddhattha Gotama, the Buddha, comprehended the answers to them; and with unlimited patience and compassion explained how to develop that same knowledge. We are extraordinarily fortunate to live in a period where his complete teachings are still available. There are now many books in English that give an overview of Buddhism, but the deeper aspects that people in Thailand receive on a daily basis, on the radio and in print, are seldom seen in the West. This book is, accordingly, a very welcome addition to this sparsely sown area. However, for those not steeped in the Buddhist scriptures, it is a difficult read. The subject is profound and many words from Pali language are used. Nevertheless, it is not beyond the capacity of anyone who perseveres. The Pali terms actually promote clarity as their meaning is precise; they are used because the English equivalents are too approximate and have varying connotations. It should also be understood that the goal of the book is not to help readers gain mere intellectual comprehension. It aims, rather, to be a support for experiential understanding of realities as they arise at the six doors. If this practical purpose is kept in mind the apparent technicality of the text will be brushed aside and the deep truths may be glimpsed.
