Kevin A Vose: Resurrecting Candrakirti, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Though his writings form the basis for studying the Middle Way in many Tibetan monasteries, the seventh century Indian master Candrakirti was widely unknown during his lifetime and in the centuries following his death. Despite this lack of recognition, Candrakirti is now celebrated as offering the most thorough and accurate vision of Nagarjuna's view of emptiness, which in turn most fully represents the final truth of the Buddha's teaching. In "Resurrecting Candrakirti, " Kevin Vose examines Candrakirti's rise to prominence and the further elaborations the Tibetans have made on his Madhyamaka school of thought. Candrakirti's philosophy is essential for a thorough understanding of Tibetan Buddhist reality, and Vose explains it clearly and comprehensively.
