Hello Lal.
Out of the dasa sanyojana what does vyāpādo or byāpādo mean, I have read the Pali glossary and the Wikipedia but it seems like I have trouble understanding what it means.

Hello Zapper,

They mean the same.
– Depending on how one pronounces the Pali word, it can be written as vyāpādo or byāpādo.
– I see that both versions are used even by the same people, including me.

Okay, thanks, I see now that they have the same meaning. But what do they actually mean? (I read it as ill-will but I am not so sure what it means)

[Lal]

P.S. It means “anger/hate.”

See, “Pañca Nīvaraṇa and Sensual Pleasures (Kāma Rāga)”

Also, see my reply to Siebe’s question: “difference between vyapada sankappa and vihimsa sankappa”
