  • Tsadra Library Glossary Search/All Gloss Entries/A Flash of Lightning in the Dark of Night/Glossary  + (The practitioners of Dharma are identifiedThe practitioners of Dharma are identified as belonging to two different sets of teaching, or ''vehicles'', according to the nature of their aspirations. These are known as the Hīnayāna, or Fundamental Vehicle, and the Mahāyāna, or Great Vehicle. The Fundamental Vehicle is subdivided into the way of the Hearers (or Shrāvakas), who are disciples of the Buddha, and the way of those who seek enlightenment relying only on themselves, or Pratyekabuddhas. The goal of the Shrāvaka and Pratyekabuddha paths is nirvāṇa, conceived of as definitive liberation from the sufferings of saṃsāra. The Great Vehicle is that of the Bodhisattvas, or those who, while accepting the validity and efficacy of the other vehicle, aspire to the full enlightenment of Buddhahood for the sake of all beings. The term ''Hīnayāna'' means "Lesser Vehicle," but this should not be understood in a pejorative sense, since its teachings are fundamental to the practice of the Great Vehicle as well. The Dalai Lama has suggested the term ''Shrāvakayāna'' be used instead of Hīnayāna. In this case the term should be understood as including the Pratyekabuddha-yāna as well.including the Pratyekabuddha-yāna as well.)
