anABoga
an-ābhoga (see ābhoga and sābhoga ), ( 1 ) adj. , effortless : crucial is Dbh 67.10 ff. , where a boat, before it reaches the open sea, is sābhoga-vāhana, traveling with (human) effort ; when it reaches the open sea it is anābhogavāhano vātamaṇḍalīpraṇīto, traveling without effort, borne along by a tornado , and goes in a single day farther than it could go in a hundred years by all effortful traveling (sarvasābhogavāhanatayā, i.e. by rowing etc. ). So, by the knowledge of the Omniscient (sarvajñajñānena), because this knowledge is effortless (automatic, spontaneous: jñānānābhogatayā), a Bodhisattva gets in a single moment farther than he could get in 100,000 kalpas by his former effortful activity (pūrvakeṇa sābhogakarmaṇā). Again, in Sūtrālaṃkāra ix.18—19 , a Buddhaʼs activities proceed without ābhoga, effortlessly, spontaneously , like music from instruments that are not being played, or jewels that shine without labor. So understand anābhogabuddhakāryāpratiprasrabdaḥ Mvy 411 , (a Tathāgata is) never ceasing from spontaneous ( Tib. lhun grub pa , self-created; not contrived by human labor , Jäschke ) Buddha-activities , and the same cpd. prefixed to -cakram LV 423.3 (see apratipraśrabdha ); automatic Śikṣ 7.15 ; °ga-vāhanaḥ Bbh 260.18 , bringing automatically ; mahākaruṇopāyakauśalyānābhogagatena prayogena Laṅk 42.8 , by praxis that effortlessly (spontaneously) arrives at great compassion and skill in devices ; sometimes best rendered by impassive (not involving or subject to any effort), anābhogaprekṣikayā with impassive look Śikṣ 268.1 ; (see s.v. ābhoga for Dbh 64.16 ;) prob. impassive in Bbh 317.3 , and 350.12 bodhisattvānām anābhogo nirnimitto vihāraḥ, which is contrasted with (and higher than) their sābhoga ( effortful ) vihāra ( 346.14 ); cf. Lévi, Sūtrāl. i.7 n. 7 ; ( 2 ) subst. m. , non-effort, impassivity : anābhoge tathā siddhiḥ Mmk 116.24 ; [Page023-a] svabhāvānābhogābhyāṃ ca vigacchanti Dbh 48.21 , and they pass away by natural process and without effort (na caiṣāṃ kaścid vigamayitā, and no one makes them pass away ); as one of the samādhy-āvaraṇāni, Dharmas 118 , see s.v. ābhoga ; ( 3 ) adverbs, without effort, effortlessly , anābhogataḥ Dbh 56.19 ; Śikṣ 12.1 ; anābhogena pariniṣpadyante, are automatically perfected , Dbh 58.9 ; ( 4 ) m. , n. of a yakṣa: Māy 52 .
