Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. This book has been set out in the most succint manner possible. In so wide a subject, it is inevitable that each teacher will have other matters he will wish to discuss and on which, of course, he will dictate his own notes. The main criticism is a diffuseness of presentat…ion, frequently making it necessary to analyse a section to see readily what is being said and to rearrange it into a form in which it can be remembered. This is beyond the powers of the average student requiring an elementary book. It is what this book attempts to do for him.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Psychology - Psychology of Religion, grade: A, Kathmandu University (Rangjung Yeshe Institute), course: Yogachara Philosophy (300), language: English, abstract: The 'Abhidharma' is a voluminous collection of…early Buddhist works written during the 3rd and 4th century. The works contain Buddhist fundamental psychology that go into more detail than any other work on human psychology before its time, containing an incredibly detailed analysis of the human mind. It is based on the teachings of the Buddha and supports a tremendous hosts of traditions that still base their dogma on it today. It was designed to address major doctrinal, however fundamental, positions held by Buddhist, and has been commented on as the basis - even authority - on a range of topics beyond psychology, including dimensions of metaphysics, ontology and phenomenology.In this essay, I will argue that despite the meticulous detail the Abhidharma provides, consciousness and causality were left unclear, forcing philosophers like Vasubandhu to invent remarkable theories to develop Mahayana consciousness and solve causality.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Psychology - Psychology of Religion, grade: A, Kathmandu University (Center for Buddhist Studies), course: Comparative Religion (400), language: English, abstract: The Buddha and the Christ are both worshippe…d, venerated and ritualized in the reality of hundreds of millions of people. In the spirit of comparativism and the methodological orientation of the class for which this paper was written, it begins by establishing the comparative methods which will be employed. First, a technique of reflexivity was employed, and secondly, for the sake of understanding the context of this paper, the author will list his biases, followed by a comparative analyses of two big myths, including the historical context of the myths, proving that mythology serves two purposes: to sustain a world or system of beliefs and to improve the general well-being of the individual practitioner.This paper compares two of the most impactful myths; the myth of the Buddha and the myth of the Christ.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Psychology - Psychology of Religion, grade: A, Kathmandu University (Rangjung Yeshe Institute), course: Yogachara Philosophy, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this term pap…er is to prove that, in the context of dependent origination, we have no control over our actions. I will attempt to name as many causes as I can and I will support my thesis in the context of Buddhist philosophy, using Buddhist texts, primary and secondary sources, reviewing the function and effects of the alaya-vijnana, the klistamanas and latent tendencies, to determine the causality of person and volition, and the lack of personal autonomy. Although it may seem that by ruling out karma all together I am undermining Buddhism as fundamentally mistaken, but I am not. I will address briefly, the soteriological application to Buddhism without karma towards the end of the essay where I consider the matter in a much broader presentation of the religion as a whole, and the Buddha's instructions to take control of our actions.There is an apparent casual order to the universe, some apparent pattern or design - not to imply a conscious designer, but rather a reality of cause and effect. As we try to measure the contours of our reality, a reality that becomes limited in one thought and infinite in another, we often find ourselves caught between limited and infinite, trying to figure out how much of it is caused by something else and how much of it is caused by us. Pratityasamutpada, the doctrine of dependent origination, and sunyata, the doctrine of emptiness, are the two most fundamental teachings in Mahayana Buddhism. Together they teach that everything and every moment is a temporary construction that is inherently empty of any independent existence.The doctrine of dependent-origination seems to imply that reality is a culmination of factors imposing a limited moment-to-moment, framed existence. And it's here, in this imposition of limitations that free will comes into question. How much free will do we have in this moment-to-moment reality of causality In order to better understand how free will applies to Buddhism, I will redefine free will in the context of Buddhism. Being a western, Abrahamic concept, we might be willing to dismiss it as irrelevant - a Western concept, inapplicable to eastern philosophy. Certainly in the context of Christianity or Islam, free will means something different than it does when used in the context of Buddhism.
