Abhidhammattha-sangaha

The Abhidhammattha-saṅgaha (English: The Compendium of Things contained in the Abhidhamma; Chinese: 摂阿毘達磨義論; Vietnamese: Thắng Pháp Tập yếu Luận, Vi diệu Pháp Toát yếu) is a Pali Buddhist instructional manual or compendium of the Abhidhamma of the Theravāda tradition.^[1] It was written by the Sri Lankan monk Ācariya Anuruddha some time between the 8th century and the 12th century.^[2]

According to Bhikkhu Bodhi, the Abhidhammattha-saṅgaha is one of the most important texts in the Theravāda Abhidhamma tradition and it provides such a "masterly summary" of the Abhidhamma that "has become the standard primer for Abhidhamma studies throughout the Theravāda Buddhist countries of South and Southeast Asia."^[3]
