Knowledge plays a very significant role in Buddhism, as it is the
gateway to enlightenment and nirvana. This volume provides a clear
and exhaustive exposition of Buddhist epistemology and logic, based
on the works of classical thinkers such as Vasubandhu, Dinnaga, and
Dharmakiriti. It traces the historical development of the Buddhist
theory of knowledge and analyzes some basic issues like the nature
of reality and knowledge, the criteria of truth, and nature of
perception and inference, the only two sources of knowledge
accepted in Buddhist philosophy. The appendix contains the Sanskrit
original and an annotated translation of Nyaya Pravesa, a basic
text of Buddhist epistemology, which discusses the nature of
perception and inference and their fallacies. This work sheds light
on abtruse epistemological topics and will enable readers to gain a
clearer appreciation of the depths of Buddhist theory of knowledge.
