vibandha , m. , and vipratibandha , m. (= Pali vibandha, Pv. comm. 207.16 , obstacle , not fetter with PTSD ), hindrance, obstacle, obstruction (wrongly defined by Wogihara, Lex. 37 ; correctly LaV-P. on AbhidhK. vi.300 , vibandha = obstacle ); the two words have been noted (except as just stated) only in Bbh and are used there interchangeably: ( 129.16 ) bodhisattvaḥ dāna-vibandham api dāna-vibandha-pratipakṣam api ( what is an obstacle to giving, and what counteracts that obstacle ) yathābhūtaṃ prajānāti.( 18 ) tatra catvāro dāna-vibandhāḥ ( v.l. °vipratibandhāḥ; they are described in detail) … ( 130.2 ) dānavipratibandha-pratipakṣaṃ niśṛtya ( taking recourse to that which counteracts the obstacle … ) … dadāti … ( 130.6 ) vighāta-kṛtaṃ dāna-vipratibandha-hetuṃ … ( 131.6 ) caturvidhasya dāna-vibandhasya caturvidhaṃ dāna-vipratibandha-pratipakṣa-jñānaṃ veditavyaṃ … ( 131.23 ) dānavipratibandha-pratipakṣa-jñānam upādāya; again, one of the 6 upāya ( q.v. ) of a bodhisattva is the vibandhasthāyin (upāya), that acts as a block (misunderstood by Wogihara l. c. ), Bbh 264.8 , discussed 267.3 katamo bodhisattvasya vibandha-sthāyī ( v.l. °stha) upāyaḥ? iha bodhisattvaḥ … (5) sattvānāṃ vipratibandhenāvatiṣṭhate ( is in the position of a block, hindrance , to the natural, worldly behavior of creatures); the text then explains how the Bodhisattva bribes creatures to abandon their natural immorality and live morally by promising them the worldly enjoyments they crave, on that condition; in this passage vipratibandha is constantly used, 267.5, 14, 19, 24 ; 268.3, 6 ; but at the end, 268.11 , vibandha-sthāyī (or rather in mss. °stha) upāyaḥ is used again, and in 268.9 , just above, evaṃ vibandha-sthitasya bodhisattvasya; once more, Bbh 388.6 (aprāpteṣu caiṣu, sc. dhyānādiṣu, cf. lines 3—4) prāptaye vibandha-saṃkleśaḥ, the (sort of) impurity (one of two kinds) that, when they have not been attained, consists in an obstacle to their attainment .
