THE PROBLEMS OF THE "AATYANTIKA" IN KUEI(11)

分享到:

 

     same  name "Bodhisattvecchantika"  (菩萨阐提  )26 or

     "mahaakaru.na-bodhisattva"or"Mahaa-karu.necchantika"

     (大悲阐提  )27 named  by Kuei-chi.  In this case, we

     can call  that the "Avalokite'svara-bodhisattva"  is

     the "Mahaakaru.na-bodhisattva" (大悲阐提 ).  But can

     we  say  that   this   "Avalokite'svara-bodhisattva"

     belongs  to the  Fifth  Nature, the  "aatyantika"? I

     think, not only Kuei-chi, but also  we will say "No"

     for  its  answer, because  Kuei-chi  in VMSVy  [c-k]

     claims  that  the  Fifth  Nature,  the  "agotra"  or

     "icchantika"  has  its  own  three  kind-natures, in

     which  the  "Mahaakaru.necchantika"  and "atyantika"

     are  involved.  Therefore, it can be said  that  the

     only "maha-karu.na-bodhisattva"  does not belong  to

     "aatyantika", and only  "aatyantika"  also  can  not

     represent  the  Fifth  Nature, as according  to  the

     theories of Kuei-chi's VMSVy [c-k].

 

     III. The Third Problem of "aatyantika"

 

      If Kuei-chi holds that the "agotra"  is only the

     "aatyantika"(阿颠底迦)or the"pi-ching-wu-chung-hsing"

     (毕竟无种姓, "atyantagotra", or "aatyantikaagotra"),

     why does he in PPHV Not only explains  that the both

     Eighth  Vij~naana  and  Seventh  Vij~naana  are good

     natures,  but   also   selects   the   theories   of

     "tathagata-garbha" (如来藏 )and "Buddha-gotra" (佛性

     )for the explanation  of the nature  of "Chien-hsing

     cheng-hsing"   (遣相证性   ) ,  one   of  the   Five

     Vij~naanavaada-perceptions (五重唯识观 )?

      As concerning  the above problem, let us see the

     following   table   which   contains   Kuei-chi's

     explanations  of both  vij~naanas.  (Please  see the

     next paper.

     The new important  theories  in above  table  are as

     follows:

     (1) Both "citta" (心 )= Eighth vij~naana and "manas"

      (意 )= Seventh vij~naana are possessing the good

      characters  or natures, which are different from

      the  indeterminate  (avyak.rta,  无记  ) natures

      mentioning in Tri^m'sikaa and VMS etc. 28

     (2) Both vij~nanas, though separately  having  their
