- four misconceptions
- ཕྱིན་ཅི་ལོག་པ་བཞི།
- phyin ci log pa bzhi
- caturviparyāsā
The four misconceptions, as found in UT22084-031-002-875, comprise holding impurity to be purity, holding non-self to be self, holding suffering to be happiness, and holding impermanence to be permanence. See Negi (1993-2005): 3569 and Zhang Yisun et al (1985): 1748. At UT22084-031-002-2139 they are expressed in slightly dissimilar language, namely: the notion that there is permanence, the notion that there is happiness, the notion that there is a self, and the notion that existence is pleasant.
