General definition (in Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Dharma-samgraha笔谤补迟测补惫别办峁峁嚹� (啶啶班い啷嵿く啶掂啶曕啶粪ぃ啶�) or 笔谤补迟测补惫别办峁峁嚹伮崦蹦宀圆� refers to 鈥渒nowledge of reflection鈥� and represents one of the 鈥渇ive knowledges鈥� (箩帽腻苍补) as defined in the Dharma-sa峁僩raha (section 94). The Dharma-samgraha (Dharmasangraha) is an extensive glossary of Buddhist technical terms in Sanskrit (e.g., 辫谤补迟测补惫别办峁峁嚹�). The work is attributed to Nagarjuna who lived around the 2nd century A.D.
: Google Books: Foundations of Indian Psychology笔谤补迟测补惫别办峁峁嘺 (啶啶班い啷嵿く啶掂啶曕啶粪ぃ) or 笔谤补迟测补惫别办峁峁嘺箩帽腻苍补 refers to the 鈥減ristine wisdom of discrimination鈥� which represents one of the five inseparable aspects of pristine wisdom in Buddhist Psychology.鈥擳he 鈥榩ristine wisdom of discrimination鈥� (pratyavek峁峁嘺-箩帽腻苍补) differentiates and understands all details of phenomena. It engages with the entire sphere of experience to distinguish details. It is the capability behind the aggregate of perception. In the absence of the confusion of grounded perspectives, the power of attachment is transformed into its purified form as correct discernment, through unbiased engagement without exclusions and exaggerations. Thus the aggregate of imputed perceptions dissolves in this pristine wisdom.
