effortless: crucial is Dbh 67.10 ff., where a boat, before it
reaches the open sea, is sābhoga-vāhana, traveling with
(human) effort; when it reaches the open sea it is anābho-
gavāhano vātamaṇḍalīpraṇīto, traveling without effort, borne
along by a tornado, and goes in a single day farther than it
could go in a hundred years by all effortful traveling
(sarvasābhogavāhanatayā, i.e. by rowing etc.). So, by
the knowledge of the Omniscient (sarvajñajñānena),
because this knowledge is effortless (automatic, spontane-
ous: jñānānābhogatayā), a Bodhisattva gets in a single
moment farther than he could get in 100,000 kalpas by
his former effortful activity (pūrvakeṇa sābhogakarmaṇā).
Again, in Sūtrālaṃkāra ix. 18--19, a Buddha's activities
proceed without ābhoga, effortlessly, spontaneously, like
music from instruments that are not being played, or
jewels that shine without labor. So understand anābhoga-
buddhakāryāpratiprasrabdaḥ Mvy 411, (a Tathāgata is)
never ceasing from spontaneous (Tib. Ihun grub pa, self-
created; not contrived by human labor, Jäschke) Buddha-
activities, and the same cpd. prefixed to -cakram LV 423.3
(see apratipraśrabdha); automatic Śikṣ 7.15; °ga-vāhanaḥ
Bbh 260.18, bringing automatically; mahākaruṇopāyakau-
śalyānābhogagatena prayogena Laṅk 42.8, by praxis that
effortlessly (spontaneously) arrives at great compassion and
skill in devices; sometimes best rendered by impassive (not
involving or subject to any effort), anābhogaprekṣikayā
with impassive look Śikṣ 268.1; (see s.v. ābhoga for Dbh
64.16;) prob. impassive in Bbh 317.3, and 350.12 bodhi-
sattvānām anābhogo nirnimitto vihāraḥ, which is con-
trasted with (and higher than) their sābhoga (effortful)
vihāra (346.14); cf. Lévi, Sūtrāl. i.7 n.7; (2) subst. m.,
non-effort, impassivity: anābhoge tathā siddhiḥ Mmk
116.24; svabhāvānābhogābhyāṃ ca vigacchanti Dbh 48.21,
and they pass away by natural process and without effort
(na caiṣāṃ kaścid vigamayitā, and no one makes them pass
away); as one of the samādhy-āvaraṇāni, Dharmas 118,
see s.v. ābhoga; (3) adverbs, without effort, effortlessly,
anābhogataḥ Dbh 56.19; Śikṣ 12.1; anābhogena pariniṣpa-
dyante, are automatically perfected, Dbh 58.9; (4) m., n.
of a yakṣa: Māy 52.
