Description Contents
 
In the Tibetan cultural region, schools of non-Buddhist and Buddhist Indian philosophies were systematized and compared in texts called "presentation of tenets" in order to get a handle on the plethora of systems inherited from India. Focal topics and issues of these schools are studied in order to stimulate inquiry and to encourage development of an inner faculty capable of investigating appearances so as to penetrate their reality.
Now a book by Jeffrey Hopkins culminating forty years of Tibetan studies presents the deeper explanation you always wanted-a fascinating and even thrilling opening of horizons to understand what is behind appearances. Hopkins brings his complete translation of Jam-yang-shay-ba's root Text on Tenets to life through weaving together copious extracts from Jam-yang-shay- ba's own commentary and from the Mongolian savant Nga-wang-bel-den's lucid annotations. Reading Maps of the Profound, you will find yourself in the land of insight.

Jam-yang-shay-ba's Great Exposition of Buddhist and Non-Buddhist Views on the Nature of Reality
Maps of the Profound, Jeffrey Hopkins, Snow Lion Publications, Hardcover, 1095 pp., $49.95
