Bodhisattva
In le buddhismo, un bodhisattva (sanscrito: बोधिसत्त्व) esse un creatura sur le via del illumination, vel del buddhitate.[1]
In le scholas buddhic antique, assi como adhuc in le buddhismo theravada, le parola ‘bodhisattva’ indica qualicuno qui ha decidite de devenir un buddha, e qui ha recepte un confirmation per un buddha illuminate que su effortios va producer le fructos desirate.[2]
In le buddhismo mahayana, un bodhisattva esse quicumque habe generate bodhicitta – le mente concentrate sur le attingimento del illumination – e qui vole ducer omne creatura sentiente a se illuminar.[3] In iste tradition, le bodhisattvas esse le equivalente spiritual de heroes qui, incitate per lor compassion, labora pro se eveliar. Iste esseres exemplifica alicun qualitates spiritual importantissime, sicut brahmaviharas (le assi-nominate ‘quatro domicilios divin’), id est maitri (benevolentia), karuna (compassion), mudita (gaudio empathic) e upeksha (equanimitate). A iste virtutes on etiam doverea adjunger le ‘perfectionamentos del bodhisattva’ (paramita), supertoto prajnaparamita, le cognoscentia transcendental.[4][5][6]
In le theravada, un bodhisattva es vise como un individuo plus unic que rar. Solmente pauc personas pote devenir bodhisattvas, sicut, per exemplo, Maitreya. In vice, in le mahayana, generalmente le idea esse que le cammin del bodhisattva esse aperte a omnes, e le mahayanis ipse incita totes a devenir bodhisattvas.[7][8] Bodhisattvas particularmente spiritualmente disveloppate – sicut Avalokiteshvara, Maitreya, Manjushri – esse de facto venerate in le mahayana, e le personas crede que illes habe magne poteres que illes usa pro adjuvar omne creatura vivente.[9]
