About This Item
Ithaca, New York: Snow Lion, 1987. 226 pp, 8vo (8 1/2" H). "For almost two thousand years Nagarjuna's teachings have occupied a central position in Mahayana Buddhism. An essential part of the study and practice in the great Indian Buddhist monastic universities, these teachings were later incorporated into the Tibetan monastic programs which modeled their curricula on their Indian predecessors. This volume contains a translation of a fundamental work of Nagarjuna, along with a new commentary on it by Geshe Sonam Rinchen which, while based on traditional sources, was created expressly for the contemporary English reader. In addition, David Komito summarizes those basic Buddhist doctrines on perception and the creation of concepts which have traditionally served as the backrop for Nagarjuna's teachings about how people consistently misperceive and misunderstand the nature of the reality in which they live and the means through which they experience it. This book will be of interest to practitioners and scholars of Buddhism as well as psychologists who seek a deeper understanding of Buddhist psychology and epistemology." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - very minor rubbing.. Soft Cover. Near Fine.
