However, the term is generally used to refer to those who, due to their insatiable desire, are incapable of enlightenment. 一闡提 See page 370: In Sanskrit, “incorrigibles”; a term used in the Mahāyāna tradition to refer to a class of beings who have lost all potential to achieve enlightenment or buddhahood. The term seems to derive from the present participle icchant (desiring), and may be rendered loosely into English as something like “hedonist” or “dissipated” (denotations suggested in theTibetan rendering 'dod chen (po), “subject to great desire”). (The Sinographs are simply a transcription of the Sanskrit.) इच्छन्तिक This was a somewhat controversial subject, especially in relation to the tathāgatagarbha teachings that state "all beings have buddha-nature." Whether icchantikas are forever excluded from liberation or that they might eventually change their ways and thus become capable of entering the path is therefore a point of contention. incorrigibles Those who are incapable of entering the Path. issendai icchantika Noun döchen döchenpo ichantika yī chǎn tí icchantika Sanskrit འདོད་ཆེན་ འདོད་ཆེན་པོ་ icchantika 'dod chen 'dod chen po icchantika;icchantika;icchantika;; 2020-01-20T15:59:31Z 2458869.166331 2020-01-20T15:59:31Z 2458869.166331 true icchantika icchantika - Literally, "those with great desire," icchantikas could be rendered as hedonists or addicts.
