Three Endurances in the Dharma (三法忍). According to the Sūtra of Amitāyus Buddha (T12n0360), these are:
(1) Endurance in Hearing the Sounds (音響忍), which means acceptance of the Dharma through hearing it;
(2) Endurance in Accord (柔順忍), which means agreement with the Dharma through pondering in accord with the truth; and
(3) Endurance in the Realization of the No Birth of Dharmas (無生法忍), which is the lasting realization of the truth that dharmas have neither birth nor death.
