dṛṣṭi

 

(Sanskrit, sight or view; Pāli, diṭṭi). Views and opinions, especially of a speculative or erroneous nature due to being tainted by the three roots of evil (akuśala-mūla). Views singled out for special criticism are the belief in a self or ātman (satkāya-dṛṣṭi), belief that the self is eternal (śāśvata-dṛṣṭi), and belief that the self is destroyed at death (uccheda-dṛṣṭi). See also śāśvata-vāda; uccheda-vāda.

Definition[2]

dṛṣṭi: 'View'; its svabhāvais prajñā. It is characterized by a strong mode of activity (ākāra) of speculation and judgment (saṃtīraṇa). As kleśa, it is five-fold: satkāya-dṛṣṭi, antagraha-dṛṣṭi, mithyā-dṛṣṭi, dṛṣṭi-parāmarśa and śīlavrata-parāmarśa. It also operates as proper view (samyag-dṛṣṭi).
