| Abstract | High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! H?nay?na is a Sanskrit and P?li term literally meaning: "the low vehicle", "the inferior vehicle", or "the deficient vehicle".The term appeared around the 1st or 2nd century CE. Its use in scholarly publications is controversial. There are differing views on the use and meaning of the term, both among scholars and within Buddhism The legitimacy of using the term Hinayana to refer to the early Buddhist schools is disputed while use of Hinayana to refer to the contemporary Theravada is seen as pejorative. In the Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese languages, the term means small vehicle, and in the Tibetan language (theg chung) the word means "small" or "lesser" vehicle. |
