Due to the diversity in Buddhism, its essence remains a puzzle.
This book investigates the Buddhist path to liberation from a
practical and critical perspective by searching for patterns found
in the Pali Nikayas and the Chinese Agamas. The early discourses
depict the Buddhist path as a network of routes leading to the same
goal: liberation from suffering. This book summarizes various
teachings in three aspects, provides a template theory for
systematically presenting the formulas of the sequential training
of the path, and analyses the differences and similarities among
diverse descriptions of the path in the early Buddhist texts. By
offering a comprehensive map of the Buddhist path, this book will
appeal to scholars and students of Buddhist studies as well as
those practitioners with a serious interest in the Buddhist path.
