    Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā sambhuddhassa

    All the teaching that our Lord Buddha had preached during his 45 years from
    the time of Enlightenment until his great Parinibbāna has been collected as Piṭaka
    canon which could be divided into three bevvies, also called the Three Baskets
    (Tipiṭaka). The first one is Suttanta Piṭaka (discourses). There are 40 treatises in
    Suttanta Piṭaka. The second one is Vinaya Piṭaka (Rules of conduct). There are 5
    treatises in Vinaya Piṭaka. The last one is Abhidhamma Piṭaka (Higher teaching of
    Lord Buddha’s philosophical and psychological matters). There are 7 treatises in
    Abhidhamma Piṭaka.

    The Lord Buddha preached Abhidhammā to his mother (who was reborn as
    amale deity by the name of Saṇtusita in the Tusitā world) in Tāvatiṁtā at 110 Mahā
    Era. For three months of vassa, all the devas who came tens of thousands of universes
    were taught the Aabhidhammā Treatises.

    It is said that when preaching the Abhidhammā to the gods of Tāvatiṁtā, the
    Buddha would visit Anotatta lake every day, leaving a nimitta Buddha, on Sakka’s
    throne to continue the preaching. After having bath in the lake and alms round, he has
    taken his mid-day rest. During this time Sāriputta would visit him and learn
    Abhidhammā from the Buddha, all that had been preached in Tāvatiṁtā during the
    previous day. Having thus learnt the Abhidhammā, Sāriputta taught it back to his five
    hundred pupils who were bats in their previous existences. The Abhidhammā has
    been carried to this day by generations of disciples.

    The term Abhidhammā consists of two words, i.e., Abhi (Higher, Greater,
    More advanced and Special) and Dhamma (Teaching of Lord Buddha). Therefore,
    Abhidhamma is known as the Higher teaching of Lord Buddha. This is because
    Abhidhamma is higher, more advanced, more profound, more subtle and technical
    than Suttanta and Vinaya.

    Seven Treatises of Abhidhammā are –

    (1) Book of Classification (Dhammasaṅganī)


    (2) Book of Analysis (Vibaṅga)
    (3) Book of Discourse on Element (Dhātukathā)
    (4) Book of Designation of Individual (Puggalapaññatti)
    (5) Book of Controversy (Kathāvatthu)
    (6) Book of Pairs (Yamaka) and
    (7) Book of Conditional Relations (Paṭṭhāna)

    The Puggalapaññatti is the fourth one of the seven treatises of Abhidhammā


    Piṭaka and immense importance for knowing the definition of Term and buddha’s
    Dhamma. Buddha preached two kinds of concept, i.e., real concept (sabhāva paññatti
    that include concept of aggregates, bases, elements, truths and controlling of faculties)
    and unreal concept (asabhāva paññatti or puggalapaññatti).

    In the 5th and 15th pairs of Duka Puggalapaññatti, Lord Buddha preached two
    Lokapāladhamma, Hirī (Shame) and Ottappa (Fear) by designating 4 kinds of
    individuals. They are
