Candrakīrti’s Madhyamakāvatārabhāṣya, Chapters 1 to 5.
Overview & Synopsis
This book contains a critical Sanskrit edition of the first five chapters of the Madhyamakāvatārabhāṣya, a work that presents the steps of the path to full Awakening according to the “Great Vehicle” of Buddhism. The author of the work, the Indian scholar Candrakīrti (circa A.D. 570–650), is one of the most important representatives of the Madhyamaka, the “Middle Way,” school—one of the two main schools of the Great Vehicle—which was founded by Nāgārjuna in the second or third century.
