Buddhist Thought guides the reader towards a richer understanding of the central concepts of classical Indian Buddhist thought, from the time of Buddha, to the latest scholarly perspectives and controversies. Abstract and complex ideas are made understandable by the authors' lucid style. Of particular interest is the up-to-date survey of Buddhist Tantra in India, a branch of Buddhism where strictly controlled sexual activity can play a part in the religious path. Williams' discussion of this controversial practice as well as of many other subjects makes Buddhist Thought crucial reading for all interested in Buddhism.

The many correlations between philosophical concepts in Eastern belief systems and the thought and practice of classical homeopathy have never been thoroughly explored. The homeopathy content of the arguments presented is mainly, though not exclusively, classical homeopathy, that is to say the method that emerges from the original founder, Samuel Hahnemann, and proceeds to the present day with a belief, where possible, in one, single, similimum remedy for the treatment of disease. The Eastern belief systems addressed are Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Jainism. Relevant detours include the mystical aspects of Islam as expressed in Sufism; and points of contact with Christian faith. Chapters include: Fundamental concepts The vital force The interrelated Universe Holism The pathological self Imbalance, disease and its symptoms Miasmatic pathology Remedies Potentization Cure: The purification of consciousness Homeopathy and the Coronavirus.

This is a translation of Frauwallner's Abhidharmastudien. It analyzes the literary traditions, doctrinal tendencies, and structural methods of the Buddhist Abhidarma canon in order to expose the beginnings of systematic philosophical thought in Buddhism. Frauwallner's insights illuminate the path of meditation toward liberation, the development of Buddhist psychology, and the evolution of the Buddhist view of causality and the problem of time. He provides a clear explanation of the gradual development of Buddhist thought from its early doctrinal beginning to some of the most complex and remarkable philosophical edifices in history.

In arriving at the heart of Buddhist philosophy, Nolan Pliny Jacobson attempts to eliminate some of the confusion in the West (and perhaps in the East as well) concerning the Buddhist view of what is concrete and ultimately real in the world. Jacobson presents Nāgārjuna, the Plato of the Buddhist tradition, as the major exemplar of the Buddhist expression of life. In his comparison of Buddhism and Western theology, Jacobson demonstrates that some efforts in Western religious thought approach the Buddhist empirical stance.
