Tiantai Buddhism emerged from an idiosyncratic and innovative interpretation of the Lotus Sutra to become one of the most complete, systematic, and influential schools of philosophical thought developed in East Asia. Brook A. Ziporyn puts Tiantai into dialogue with modern philosophical concerns to draw out its implications for ethics, epistemology, and metaphysics. Ziporyn explains Tiantai's unlikely roots, its positions of extreme affirmation and rejection, its religious skepticism and embrace of religious myth, and its view of human consciousness. Ziporyn reveals the profound insights of Tiantai Buddhism while stimulating philosophical reflection on its unexpected effects.

Описание: A bold philosophical defense of existential nihilism based on modern science. * * * When we imagine a machine, the result is always something close to a mechanical system that works by itself. It doesn't bother us to think that it's nothing beyond that. But how do we feel when we imagine ourselves as a machine? Empty. We have the feeling that something is missing. And what is missing? What's there in a human that is missing in a machine? Illusion. The emptiness of the machine is the consciousness that our subjective world is a fiction; the consciousness that our humanity is a delirium, and that there's nothing behind what we are living. We are machines, and our consciousness is a dream of this machine. Nothing else. Absolutely nothing.* * *"Great. I cannot remember the last time I read something so interesting."- John"Divine essay, in a borrowed sense. It took me 40 years to understand this. A text like when I was 18 would have solved my search for the real nihilism. Worth more than the Zarathustra."- Jurandir Vieira da Silva"Great essay. Special highlight for the phrase: 'It is preferable to live in a meaningless world to believing in a false meaning to the world, one that points nowhere.' When we are seeking a grandiose (and fanciful) sense of life, we end up giving little value to life itself. The act of living is the meaning of life."- Andrй Felix"In one word: great! More adjectives would be disposable."- Tom Carano"I have it printed at the head of the bed to reread it a few more times. Great!"- Julio Neves

Описание: The Middle Way is widely accepted to be the pinnacle of the Buddha's profound philosophical approach and the key to understanding the definitive meaning of a vast number of teachings. However, common misconceptions about how emptiness is the ultimate nature of reality can have a significant impact on the degree of profundity that can subsequently be experienced. If our view is limited, our realisation will also be limited. For this reason, as we strive for ultimate freedom, it is vital to clear away both gross and subtle limitations that prevent us from establishing a view capable of penetrating to the deepest levels of truth.
In this book, Khentrul Rinpoch shines the vivid light of wisdom on the very subtle distinctions which establish the profound view of the Great Middle Way as propagated within the Jonang tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Rooted in the flawless textual tradition of the Buddha's own teachings and those of the Bodhisattva Kings, this widely misunderstood philosophical system emphasizes the clear distinction between the emptiness of conventional reality and the infinite manifestation of ultimate reality, known as buddha-nature. With this direct and fearless analysis, Rinpoch challenges us to transcend narrow modes of thinking and to discover the limitless potential we each carry within.
What makes a person Jewish? Why do some people feel they have physically inherited the memories of their ancestors? Is there any way to think about race without reducing it to racism or to physical differences? These questions are at the heart of Racial Fever: Freud and the Jewish Question. In his final book, Moses and Monotheism, Freud hinted at the complexities of Jewishness and insisted that Moses was really an Egyptian. Slavet moves far beyond debates about how Freud felt about Judaism; instead, she explores what he wrote about Jewishness: what it is, how it is transmitted, and how it has survived. Freud’s Moses emerges as the culmination of his work on transference, telepathy, and intergenerational transmission, and on the relationships between memory and its rivals: history, heredity, and fantasy. Writing on the eve of the Holocaust, Freud proposed that Jewishness is constituted by the inheritance of ancestral memories; thus, regardless of any attempts to repress, suppress, or repudiate Jewishness, Jews will remain Jewish and Judaism will survive, for better and for worse.

Sarah would be missing for thirteen years, becoming one of the leading and most watched news stories in New England during the ensuing two decades.
In Missing Sarah Pryor, find out how Sarah's story finally ends as this little girl teaches us all about the horror and the beauty in life, and share in Sarah's gift to us all--her powerful legacy of love.
Genealogies of Mahāyāna Buddhism offers a solution to a problem that some have called the holy grail of Buddhist studies: the problem of the "origins" of Mahāyāna Buddhism. In a work that contributes both to a general theory of religion and power for religious studies as well as to the problem of the origin of a Buddhist movement, Walser argues that that it is the neglect of political and social power in the scholarly imagination of the history of Buddhism that has made the origins of Mahāyāna an intractable problem. Walser challenges commonly-held assumptions about Mahāyāna Buddhism, offering a fascinating new take on its genealogy that traces its doctrines of emptiness and mind-only from the present day back to the time before Mahāyāna was "Mahāyāna." In situating such concepts in their political and social contexts across diverse regimes of power in Tibet, China and India, the book shows that what was at stake in the Mahāyāna championing of the doctrine of emptiness was the articulation and dissemination of court authority across the rural landscapes of Asia.
This text will be will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students and scholars of Buddhism, religious studies, history and philosophy.
