Buddha nature reconsidered
the Eighth Karma Pa's middle path
by Higgins, David (Lecturer in religious st...
"This two-volume publication offers a detailed overview of the interpretation of buddha nature advanced by the Eighth Karma pa Mi bskyod rdo rje (1507-1554). The first volume undertakes a philosophical analysis of Mi bskyod rdo rje's central claims regarding buddha nature after first outlining the major Indian and Tibetan Buddhist views prevalent in his time. The second volume comprises an annotated anthology of English translations of his most important writings on buddha nature accompanied by critical editions and introductions. In our analysis, special attention is devoted to the Karma pa's persistent concern to reconcile two divergent lines of interpretation of buddha nature that had long divided Buddhist thinkers in India and Tibet."--Publisher's website.
