三障

Also called Three Obstacles. They are the obstructions that hinder the attainment of Buddhahood. When the Three Obstructions are cleared, the Three Virtues will be perfected. The Three Obstructions are:

  1. Affliction obstruction  -  e.g. due to Three Poisons, i.e. greed, hatred and stupidity.
  2. Karma obstruction  -  e.g. due to Five Offenses, and Ten Unwholesome Deeds, i.e. the Karma in the past.
  3. Retribution obstruction  -  e.g. the suffering retribution in Three Evil Paths.
