'Ethics' was not developed as a separate branch of philosophy in
Buddhist traditions until the modern period, though Buddhist
philosophers have always been concerned with the moral significance
of thoughts, emotions, intentions, actions, virtues, and precepts.
Their most penetrating forms of moral reflection have been
developed within disciplines of practice aimed at achieving freedom
and peace. This Element first offers a brief overview of Buddhist
thought and modern scholarly approaches to its diverse forms of
moral reflection. It then explores two of the most prominent
philosophers from the main strands of the Indian Buddhist tradition
- Buddhaghosa and Santideva - in a comparative fashion.
