    Making Sense of Mind Only 7

    In this episode, we begin to look more explicitly at Yogarchara ideas by considering chapter 5 of Waldron's Making Sense of Mind Only. More specifically, we consider the teaching of the the Three Natures and the notion that Yogachara represents a 'third turning of the Wheel' of the Dharma.

    Making Sense of Mind Only 6

    In this episode, we continue to review the Madhyamaka perspective in relation to the nature of reality as presented by William Waldron in his book, 'Making Sense of Mind Only'. In particular, we touch on the teaching of the Two Truths and emphasise the indivisible link between them. We affirm that the absolute truth can only be realised by means of the relative truth.

    Making Sense of Mind Only: 5

    In this episode we look at the philosophical context of Madhayamaka in relation to the emergence of Yogachara thought. In particular, we highlight the teaching of emptiness (shunyata) and question the analytical method so prevalent in Buddhist thought. We also examine whether arguments against the idea of an atman (soul) are compelling or not, especially when considered in relation to Dependent origination.

    Making Sense of Mind Only 4

    In this episode, we look at chapter 3 of William Waldron's book 'Making Sense of Mind Only', which offers an overview and critique of the Adhidharma Buddhist tradition. More particularly, it aims to show how problems in the Abhidharma approach gave rise to Mahayana philosophical ideas and, more specifically, Yogachara developments.

    Making Sense of Mind Only 3

    We continue to study William Waldron's 'Making Sense of Mind Only', which is an introduction to Yogachara philosophy. In this episode we look at chapter 2 of the book, which examines the interdependent nature of perception, and experience as a whole, in early Buddhism. We explore how self and world are interconnected.

    Making Sense of Mind Only 2

    In this episode we consider chapter 1 of William Waldron's book 'Making sense of Mind Only'. We look at the early Buddhist background that informs the Yogachara perspective, particularly by looking at conditionality and anatman (no fixed self).

    Making Sense of Mind Only 1

    In the episode we begin a study of William Waldron's new book 'Making Sense of Mind Only', which is an introduction to Yogachara ideas within Buddhism. Here we consider the introduction and examine the approach that Waldron presents which is to present Yogachara in dialogue with the traditions that preceded it and as trying to solve practical, spiritual problems rather than to affirm a philosophical worldview.
