The Treasury of Knowledge, Book Seven and Book Eight, Parts One and Two: Foundations of Buddhist Study and Practice
- Used Book in Good Condition
JamgÂ¶n Kongtrulâ‚¬s ten-volume Treasury of Knowledge is a unique encyclopedic masterpiece embodying the entire range of Buddhist teachings as they were preserved in Tibet. Tibetan Buddhist teachers expected their students to study Buddhist philosophical texts as well as practice reflection and meditation; present-day students have also realized that awakening has its source in study as well as in reflection and practice.

Foundations of Buddhist Study and Practice comprises Book Seven and Book Eight, Parts One and Two of the Treasury of Knowledge. Book Seven elucidates the various keys needed to correctly interpret, understand, and contemplate Buddhist teachings, including the secret teachings of the Vajrayana. Parts One and Two of Book Eight explain how the teachings are to be integrated into oneâ‚¬s life through the practice of meditation, which unites a state of one-pointed attention with profound insight into emptiness. JamgÂ¶n Kongtrulâ‚¬s evenhanded, elegant, and authoritative statement of such controversial doctrines as unqualified emptiness (â‚¬Å“self-emptyâ‚¬Â) and qualified emptiness (â‚¬Å“other-emptyâ‚¬Â), provisional and definitive meaning, and conventional and ultimate truth as presented in the various schools of Tibetan Buddhism will appeal to both serious Dharma practitioners and advanced students and scholars.
