Guang Xing gives an analysis of one of the fundamental Mahayana
Buddhist teachings, namely the three bodies of the Buddha (the
trikaya Theory), which is considered the foundation of Mahayana
philosophy. He examines how and why the philosophical concept of
three bodies was formed, particularly the Sambhogakaya, which is
the Buddha to be worshipped by all Mayahanists. Written in an
accessible way, this work is an outstanding research text for
students and scholars of Mayahana Buddhism and anyone interested in
Buddhist philosophy.
