Opening the Clear Vision of the Vaibhashika and Sautrantika Schools (Padma Samye Ling Shedra Series, v. 1) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

The Vaibhashikas believe that relative truth is that which can be broken down into parts, whereas ultimate truth is indivisible. The Sautrantikas accept the selflessness of persons but not the selflessness of phenomena. The Cittamatrins accept the selflessness of both self and phenomena, but believe in the true existence of mind. Finally, the Madhyamikas claim that things appear to be real and substantial, but are actually without inherent, true existence. The various tenets of these four schools form the basis for understanding the entire scope of the Buddha's teachings. Thus, it is essential to gain an understanding of the fundamental schools of Vaibhashika and Sautrantika on the road to ultimate insight.
