The Sanrinshin (the three wheel-embodiments) theory of Esoteric Buddhism advocates that 'Buddha' has three figures called Jishorinjin (embodiment of the wheel of own-nature), Shoborinjin (embodiment of the wheel of the true Dhara) and Kyoryorinjin (embodiment of the wheel of injunction). |
密教では三輪身(さんりんじん)説といって、1つの「ほとけ」が自性輪身(じしょうりんじん)、正法輪身(しょうぼうりんじん)、教令輪身(きょうりょうりんじん)という3つの姿をとることが説かれている。 |
