The notion of 'view' or 'opinion' (ditthi) as an obstacle to
'seeing things as they are' is a central concept in Buddhist
thought. This book considers the two ways in which the notion of
views are usually understood. Are we to understand right-view as a
correction of wrong-views (the opposition understanding) or is the
aim of the Buddhist path the overcoming of all views, even
right-view (the no-views understanding)? The author argues that
neither approach is correct. Instead he suggests that the early
texts do not understand right-view as a correction of wrong-view,
but as a detached order of seeing, completely different from the
attitude of holding to any view, wrong or right.
