1. Jeffrey Hopkins Dictionary
Hopkins' Translations: Lesser Vehicle; Inferior Vehicle
Sanskrit: hīnayāna
Synonyms: ཐེག་པ་དམན་པ་
Comment: The term Lesser Vehicle has its origin in the writings of Great Vehicle (theg chen, mahāyāna) authors and was, of course, not used by those to whom it was ascribed. Substitutes such as non-Mahāyāna, Nikāya Buddhism, and Theravādayāna have been suggested in order to avoid the pejorative sense of Lesser. However, Lesser Vehicle is a convenient term in this particular context for a type of tenet system or practice that is seen in Tibetan scholarship to be surpassed but not negated by a higher system. The Lesser Vehicle is not despised, most of it being incorporated into the Great Vehicle.
