Skt. pāramitā. 1) transcendental practice, transcendental perfection, transcendent practice, transcendent perfection; 2) far-reaching practice, far-reaching perfection; 3) wide-ranging practice, wide-ranging perfection; 4) consummate practice, consummate perfection. "Perfection", despite being the most common English rendering of this term, is quite flawed. These in fact usually refer to the ongoing, unperfected cultivated applications of those who practice the bodhisattva path. The core meaning is 'transcendent(-al)', as these are not the ordinary kinds of generosity, patience and so on, but rather those practices which are made 'transcendental' (or "perfected") by way of the bodhisattva's bodhicitta (byang chub kyi sems) and view of emptiness (stong pa nyid); in particular through the sixth pāramitā, the Transcendental Practice of Discerning Insight or prajñā-pāramitā.
