eight types of arrogance
[八慢] ( Jpn hachi-man )

Also, eight arrogances. They are:

(1) thinking that one is superior to others, though one is really inferior;
(2) thinking that one is superior to others, when actually one is equal to them;
(3) boasting of one's superiority over others and belittling them;
(4) thinking that one's life, a temporary union of the five components, is permanent;
(5) thinking that one has attained enlightenment when in fact one has not;
(6) thinking that one is only slightly inferior to those who far surpass one;
(7) thinking that one possesses virtue though one lacks virtue, and
(8) thinking little of others or paying no respect to people of virtue or who are superior to oneself.
