An Evaluation of the Vedantic Critique of Buddhism
Gregory J. Darling
An Evaluation of the Vedantic Critique of Buddhism - 1st ed. - Delhi Motilal Banarsidass Publishers 2007 - 393
This book represents a comparison of the critique of Buddhism as set forth in the interpretations of Sankara, Madhva and Ramanuja to the sutras of the second section (adhyaya) of the Brahma-sutras concerned with the reputation of Buddhism, with the positions actually elaborated by the Buddhists in their own texts. An attempt is also made to compare the conflicting interpretations of the three commentators to these particular sutras, in accordance with the philosophical approach unique to each commentator. The book is divided into two parts. The first part consists of an introductory background. It includes a brief description of the Brahma-sutras as a text and summarizes the philosophical positions of the three commentators. The second part proceeds sutra by sutra to study the three commentators interpretations of the particular sutras directed against the Buddhists.
