詞語:vipassana^
【vipassana^ 】
is frequently found in the older sutta texts (e.g. A. II, 32; S. XLV, 159), also together with samatha. The 9 and 18 insight-knowledges (vipassana^-n~a^na and maha^-vipassana^), however, occur in the Sutta Pitaka only in the Pts.M., n~a^nakatha^, where they are enumerated and explained, though without any group name being attached to them.
