The Notion of Ditthi in Theravada Buddhism : The Point of View
ISBN: 9780415342933 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The notion of "view" or "opinion" ("ditthi") as an obstacle to "seeing things as they are" is a central concept in Buddhist thought. This book considers the two ways in which the notion of views are usually understood. Are we to understand right-view as a correction of wrong-views (the opposition understanding) or is the aim of the Buddhist path the overcoming of all views, even right-view (the no-views understanding)? The author argues that neither approach is correct. Instead, he suggests that the early texts do not understand right-view as a correction of wrong-view, but as a detached...

ISBN: 9780415365086 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

For most of its history the fortunes of Theravada, the most conservative form of Buddhism, have been identified with those of that Order. Under the great Indian emperor, Asoka, himself a...
