A Dose of Emptiness: An Annotated Translation of the sTong thun chen mo of mKhas grub dGe legs dpal bzang Paperback – 7 July 1992 by José Ignacio Cabezón (Author) 4.8 out of 5 stars (6) Sorry, there was a problem loading this page.Try again. See all formats and editions This book is an annotated translation of one of the great Tibetan classics of Mahayana Buddhist thought, mKhas grub rje's sTong thun chen mo. The text is a detailed critical exposition of the theory and practice of emptiness as expounded in the three major schools of Mahayana Buddhist philosophy: the Yogacara, Svatantrika, and Prasangika. Used as a supplement to the scholastic debating manuals in some of the greatest monasteries of Tibet, the sTong thun chen mo is a veritable encyclopedia of Mahayana Buddhist philosophy, dealing with such topics as hermeneutics, the theory of non-duality, the linguistic interpretation of emptiness, the typology of ignorance, logic, the nature of time, and the perception of matter across world spheres. This book is an indispensable source for understanding the Tibetan dGe lugs pa school's synthesis of the Middle Way (Madhyamaka) and Epistemological (Pramanika) traditions of Indian Buddhism. In addition, it is an unprecedented source for the philosophical polemics of fifteenth century Tibet. Read more Report an issue with this product Previous slide of product details

Product description

Review

"It is encyclopedic and covers the most important ideas in the whole fabric of Indian Mahayana-Tibetan Buddhism. It brings to sharp relief of the many debates, controversies, and variant interpretations of the key issues. Some of the elucidations are only found in these Tibetan sources and thus increases the value of this work."-- Kenneth Inada, State Univeersity of New York at Buffalo

    4.0 out of 5 stars An essential Tibetan Buddhist commentary on the exploration of the nature of existence.
    Reviewed in the United States on 15 May 2015Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase An essential Gelukpa text by one of Tsongkhapa's disciples -- Khedrup Je. This is a translation of Tibetan commentary on the differences among various Buddhist tenet systems and Gelukpa assertions about the nature of existence through the use of Buddhist logic. Although being well documented with footnotes and explanations, the text is difficult for the casual or beginning student of Tibetan Buddhism. Read more Report
