Abstract
This book provides explanations on important Buddhist teachings such as "Prajna Thought", "Buddha's View in the Lotus Sutra", "Origin of Amida Faith", "From Nagarjuna to Asanga and Vasubandhu", "Consciousness-only Philosophy", and "Mandala Thought". It brings to light the numerous living thoughts that may not be themed in academic books. Readers are expected to gain understanding through the author's paradoxical and humorous discourse.
