'''[[Prasrabhi]]''' ([[Sanskrit]]; [[Tibetan]] Wylie: shin tu sbyang ba) is a [[Mahayana]] [[Buddhist]] term translated as "[[pliancy]]", "[[flexibility]]", or "[[alertness]]". It is defined as the ability to apply [[body]] and [[mind]] towards [[virtuous]] [[activity]]. It is one of the [[virtuous]] [[Mental factors]] within the [[Abhidharma]] teachings.
 
  
The [[Abhidharma-samuccaya]] states:
 
 
:    What is [[alertness]]? It is the pliability of [[body]] and [[mind]] in [[order]] to interrupt the continuity of the [[feeling]] of sluggishness in [[body]] and [[mind]]. Its [[function]] is to do away with all [[obscurations]].
