A Direct Path to the Buddha Within: Go Lotsawa's Mahamudra Interpretation of the Ratnagotravibhaga

More about the book

Focusing on the Ratnagotravibhaga, Klaus-Dieter Mathes explores the teachings on Buddha nature as articulated by Go Lotsawa. He highlights how Lotsawa integrates these concepts with mainstream Mahayana thought while steering clear of the zhentong perspective of the Jonang tradition. Additionally, Mathes assesses Lotsawa's views in relation to interpretations from key figures in the Kagyu, Nyingma, and Jonang schools, providing a comprehensive analysis of this significant Indian treatise on Buddha nature.
