Book Description

About the Book:

This book gives a descriptive analysis of specific Madhyamika texts. It compares the ideology of Kumarajiva (a translator of the four Madhyamika treatises 400 A.D.) with the ideologies of the three Chinese contemporaries - HuiYuan, Seng-Jui and Seng-Chao. It envisages an intercultural transmission of religious and philosophical ideas from India to China

In eight chapters along with 10 documents it details the philosophy, ideology, comparison, 'the Lineage of the old Treatise Sect' and 'the Chief Idea of the Mahayana.'
