Anne Carolyn Klein : Knowing, Naming, and Negation

Knowing, Naming, and Negation A Sourcebook on Tibetan Sautrantika Translated by Anne Carolyn Klein Contributions by Geshe Belden Drakba Contributions by Denma Locho Rinpoche Contributions by Kensur Yeshay Tupden By Anne Carolyn Klein

Several years in the Tibetan monastic curriculum are devoted to study of the Sautrantika tenet system, for it forms the basis for Madhyamika epistemology. The systematization of Sautrantika assertions has interested generations of Tibetan scholars to the present. Three major types of scholastic literature developed: presentations of the whole tenet system, syllogistic debate texts on problematic topics, and expository treatments of single important issues. Klein annotates translations of outstanding texts in these categories and supplements them with commentary from Tibetan yogi/scholars.
