Description: A comprehensive overview of the influential Tibetan Buddhist philiosopher Mipham's work on emptiness and Buddha nature.
Mipham (1846-1912) is one of the most prolific scholar-yogis in the history of Tibetan Buddhism and a key figure in the Nyingma tradition. This book provides an in-depth account of Mipham's view, drawing on a wide range of his works and offering several new translations. Duckworth shows how a dialectic of presence and absence permeates Mipham's writings on the Middle Way and Buddha nature.
Arguably the most important doctrine in Buddhism, Buddha nature is, for Mipham, equivalent to the true meaning of emptiness; it is the ground of all and the common ground shared by all sentient beings and Buddhas. This ground is the foundation of the path and inseparable from the goal of Buddhahood. Duckworth probes deeply into Mipham's writings on Buddha nature to illuminate its central place in a dynamic Buddhist philosophy.
