Doubts in Buddhist Teachings Abandonment Method

Abhidhamma is the answer for doubting person (vicikicchā-mind-factor just arise with pure moha-mind).

Commentary said that in 3 pitaka:
  1. Vinaya-pitaka is for alobha-meditation.
  2. Sutta-pitaka is for adosa-meditation.
  3. Abhidhamma-pitaka is for amoha-meditation.
Why?

One must leaves every lay's asset, lobha's object, for observing vinaya in vinaya-pitaka. So, vinaya-pitaka is for alobha-development (ordinate to observe monk's sīla).

One must leaves every kāma-loka's senses by jhāna, for living like bhrahmma-deva, like anāgami done. Kāma-loka's senses are causes of dosa, too. Therefore anagāmi, who abadoned paṭiga-anusaya (dosa), abandoned next life in kāma-loka, too. And sutta is very less description, very short, and very less question, when compare with abhidhamma, because buddha taught sutta for the listeners who had experiences in upacāra-jhāna, appanā-jhāna, or upacāra-jhāna-like (ditthi-caritta [uggaṭitaññu & vipacitaññu]). Samahitam cittam yathabhutam pajanati (Good concentrating practitioner will see the truth). So, suttanta-pitaka is for adosa-development (concentration-meditation).

Buddha taught abhidhamma to sāriputta very long description and sāriputta taught paṭisambhidāmagga & niddesa very long description, too. Also, there are millions questions in those canons. Because buddha and sāriputta taught abhidhamma-pitaka for the listeners who have a ton of questions, low concentrating in meditation object, and too much doubts. So, abhidhamma-pitaka is for amoha-development (wisdom/understand-meditation).

So, if you want the answers for every doubts, full-course abhidhamma-study is required by your doubt. Everything in abhidhamma must can analysis their own reasons (causes and effects). So, your doubts can not doubt anymore, after you understand throughout abhidhamma.
