Dependent Origination and Emptiness

Leigh Brasington

4.9/5 (17828 ratings)

Description:Dependent Origination is the most important teaching that the Buddha uses to explain what dukkha (suffering, dissatisfaction, or "bummer") arises dependent upon and to provide a strategy for ending dukkha. Dependent Origination is often presented as a linked list of dependencies, frequently numbering twelve items. But it is far more than just the twelve item linked list; the implications of the general case of “something arising dependent upon something else” are quite profound and lead to some of the deepest of all the Buddha's teachings.In this book meditation teacher Leigh Brasington delves into the concept of Dependent Origination and how it relates to the profound Buddhist teaching of Emptiness (suññatā). The book - founded on a comprehensive survey of the Pāḷi Canon - describes the various ways this highly important theme was considered in early Buddhist scripture, as well as many of the different interpretations that have been given of Dependent Origination in the latter commentarial tradition up until modern times. The book then explores the relationship of Dependent Origination and Emptiness, based especially on the philosophy of Nāgārjuna (c. 150 - 250 CE), one of the most influential Buddhist teachers since the time of the Buddha himself.The book is available for download free of charge under a Creative Commons license at the author's own webpage sodapi (dot) leighb (dot) com.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
