In Buddhism
General definition (in Buddhism)
Source: Triveni: Journal (Buddhism)Repeated births are visualised as happening due to differentiation of subject and object without fully comprehending the interdependence and inter-relatedness of all existents which in Buddhistic vocabulary is ‘Pratitya Samutpada.’ Once this revelation dawns in the mind of man, he attains Nirvana. To rise to such a spiritual height one should practise ‘Kusala Karma’ (wholesome conduct) completely rid of egocentric delusions and clinging to worldly things.—(Cf. K. Subba Rao’s review of The Buddhist Concept of Hell by Daigan and Matsunaga, Philosophical Library]
