five false views
五利使 (Jpn go-rishi )
According to The Treatise on the Establishment of the Consciousness-Only Doctrine, the five views that, along with the five delusive inclinations, constitute the ten fundamental earthly desires. T'ient'ai (538-597) included these ten in the illusions of thought and desire, the first of the three categories of illusion.
The five false views are:
(1) Though the mind and body are no more than a temporary union of the five components, one regards them as possessing a self that is absolute; and though nothing in the universe can belong to an individual, one views one's mind and body as one's own possession;
(2) the belief in one of two extremes concerning existence: that life ends with death, or that life persists after death in some eternal and unchanging form;
(3) denial of the law of cause and effect;
(4) adhering to misconceptions and viewing them as truth, while regarding inferior views as superior; and
(5) viewing erroneous practices or precepts as the correct way to enlightenment.
