About the Book

Buddhist Philosophy occupies a very important place in the History of Indian Philosophical systems. Infact Lord Buddha's Teachings are based on logic and reasoning. That's why his teachings were adopted and accepted by everyone whether a common man, a King or a Philosopher. In the present endeavour, the author has tried to present all the important doctrines of Buddhist Philosophy in a simple, lucid and compact manner. Here the various doctrines such as Impermanence and Momentariness, Dependent-origination, No-soul theory, Nirvana etc. have been discussed in detail on the basis of old Buddhist Literature as well as the latter treatises related to the four philosophical Schools of Buddhism. Some important Non-Buddhist-Scholars like Kumarila Bhatta, Vacaspati Misra etc. have also been referred to, wherever required. A separate chapter on Buddhist ways of Yoga has also been added. It is anticipated that the present work will prove to be of great importance for the students, researchers and scholars of Buddhist Philosophy.
