Three Short Treatises collects brief and important explorations in
Mahayana Buddhism. A Mahayana Demonstration on the Theme of Action
is Vasubandhu's meditation on karma, here translated from the
earlier Chinese translation of Xuan-zhuang. The work presents a
systematic view of various theories on karma from the perspective
of the Mind Only school. Essays of Sengzhao presents four works by
Sengzhao, an important disciple of Kumarajiva; the collection is
said to have exerted considerable influence on later Chinese
Buddhism, in part because it relates issues in Buddhist doctrine to
traditional Chinese philosophy. The Treatise on the Origin of
Humanity by Zong-mi explores the basis of human existence in the
context of Confucianism, Taoism, Theravada, and certain Mahayana
understandings-which he finds unsatisfactory-to present what he
considers a true Mahayana view of human existence.
