Description
Contents
Fifteenth-century Buddhist scholar Gorampa challenged his contemporaries’ thinking about the fundamental concept of “emptiness,” pioneering an approach that avoided what he critiqued as the traps of eternalism and nihilism. Freedom from Extremes is his powerful polemic on the subject. This critical edition of a book renowned for its conciseness, lucidness, and profundity provides students and scholars with direct access to Gorampa’s own words. The authors offer illuminating context in an extensive introduction on his life and work, along with an overview of Tibetan polemical literature.
