Which of the following does not form a part of Brahma Vihāra ?

  • A.Maitri
  • B.Dayā
  • C.Muditā
  • D.Upekṣā

Answer: B

Daya does not form a part of the Brahma Vihara. The four Brahma Viharas, the 'divine abodes' of Buddhist meditation, are Maitri (loving kindness), Karuna (compassion), Mudita (sympathetic joy) and Upeksa (equanimity). Daya is a general word for mercy, close in sense to karuna, but it is not one of the four names. Maitri, Mudita and Upeksa are all in the list, so each of those options is wrong. The answer is Daya.
