Definition[1]

śrāvaka, a hearer, a term applied to the personal disciples of the Buddha, distinguished as mahā-śrāvaka; it is also applied to hearers, or disciples in general; but its general connotation relates it to Hīnayāna disciples who understand the four dogmas, rid themselves of the unreality of the phenomenal, and enter nirvana; it is the initial stage; cf. 舍.

'voice-hearer'; originally, a disciple of the Buddha (who heard his voice); later, a follower of Hīnayāna who contemplates the principle of the four noble truths to attain nirvāna. In Mahayana texts, the śrāvaka is considered along with the pratyekabuddha 辟支佛, to be a practitioner of the two lesser vehicles (二乘、小乘), inferior in insight and compassion to the bodhisattva 菩薩.

Definition[4]

梵語 śrāvaka,巴利語 sāvaka。音譯舍羅婆迦。又意譯作弟子。為二乘之一,三乘之一。指聽聞佛陀聲教而證悟之出家弟子。大乘義章卷十七本解釋聲聞之名義有三,即:(一)就得道之因緣而釋,聞佛之聲教而悟解得道,稱為聲聞。(二)就所觀之法門而釋,如十地經論卷四說,我眾生等,但有名故,說之為聲,於聲悟解,故稱聲聞。(三)就化他之記說而釋,如法華經卷二信解品載說,以佛道聲,令一切聞,故稱聲聞。此三釋中,前二者為小乘之聲聞,第三則為菩薩,隨義而稱為聲聞。
聲聞原指佛陀在世時之諸弟子,後與緣覺、菩薩相對,而為二乘、三乘之一。即觀四諦之理,修三十七道品,斷見、修二惑而次第證得四沙門果,期入於「灰身滅智」之無餘涅槃者。聲聞乘,乃專為聲聞所說之教法。聲聞藏,則為闡述其教說之經典。
於諸經論中,聲聞之種類有二種、三種、四種、五種之別。據解深密經卷二無自性相品載,有:一向趣寂聲聞、迴向菩提聲聞等二種聲聞。入楞伽經卷四載,有:決定寂滅聲聞、發菩提願善根名善根聲聞、化應化聲聞等三種聲聞。瑜伽師地論卷七十三有:變化聲聞、誓願聲聞、法性聲聞等三種聲聞。世親之法華論卷下則將聲聞分類為決定聲聞、增上慢聲聞、退菩提心聲聞、應化聲聞等四種。
另據法華文句卷四上所舉,將聲聞類分為五,稱為五種聲聞,即:(一)決定聲聞,謂久習小乘,積劫道熟而證得小果。(二)退菩提聲聞,謂此聲聞本習大乘,積劫修道,然中間為厭生死,退大道心,取證小果。(三)應化聲聞,謂諸佛菩薩為度化前二種聲聞,故內祕佛菩薩之行,外現聲聞之形,以勸誘小乘,令入大乘。(四)增上慢聲聞,謂厭離生死,欣樂涅槃,修習小乘而以得少為滿足,未得謂得,未證謂證。(五)大乘聲聞,謂以佛道之聲,令一切聞者不住於化城(喻小乘涅槃),終歸大乘實相之理。
以上所舉,皆基於大乘教義所作之分類,然諸部阿含經典及發智論、六足論等諸論之中,則不持此等說法,彼所謂之聲聞,僅指上述之趣寂聲聞一種而已。此外,聲聞一語,於阿含等原始聖典中,兼指出家與在家弟子;然至後世,則專指佛教教團確立後之出家修行僧。〔雜阿含經卷三十一、長阿含經卷一、瑜伽師地論卷六十七、卷八十、法華玄論卷一、卷四、卷七、大乘義章卷十七末、大乘法苑義林章卷二、法華文句卷一上〕
