Mulamadhyamakakarika of Nagarjuna: The Philosophy of the Middle Way (Introd., Skt. Text, Eng. Tr.and Annot.) (Hardcover)
By Nagarjuna

Review & Description

This is a completely new translation of Nagarjuna`s major work the Mulamadhyamakakarika, accompanied by a detailed annotation of each of the verses. The annotation identifies the metaphysical theories of the scholastics criticized by Nagarjuna, and traces the source material and the arguments utilized in his refutation back to the early discourses of the Buddha. The book shows that Nagarjuna`s ideas are neither original nor are they an advancement from the early Buddhist period. Nagarjuna is not a Mahayanist. Read more
