四漏 [si lou]—(Four Leaks) — [名數 [ming shu] (Enumerations)]
1. 欲漏 [yu lou] (Desire Leak): These are the cultivated afflictions (修惑 [xiu huo]) of the desire realm (欲界 [yu jie]), but excluding ignorance (無明 [wu ming]).
2. 有漏 [you lou] (Existence Leak): These are the cultivated afflictions (修惑 [xiu huo]) of the upper two realms (上二界 [shang er jie]), but excluding ignorance (無明 [wu ming]).
3. 無明漏 [wu ming lou] (Ignorance Leak): This is the ignorance (無明 [wu ming]) of the three realms (三界 [san jie]).
4. 見漏 [jian lou] (View Leak): These are the delusive views (見惑 [jian huo]) of the three realms (三界 [san jie]).

漏 [lou] (Leak) is another name for afflictions (煩惱 [fan nao]). These (Four Leaks) are identical in essence (體 [ti]) to the 四流 [si liu] (Four Floods), differing only slightly in their order (次第 [ci di]). From 大藏法數 [da cang fa shu] (Taisho Tripitaka Dharmasūtras) Vol. 23. Refer to the entry on 四流 [si liu] (Four Floods).

四漏—【名數】一欲漏。欲界之修惑也。但除無明。二有漏。上二界之修惑也。但除無明。三無明漏。三界之無明也。四見漏。三界之見惑也。漏是煩惱之異名。此四漏與四流之體同,惟次第稍異耳。出大藏法數二十三。參照四流條。(四流)
