Active in the twelfth century, mabja was among the first tibetans to rely on the works of the indian master candrakirti, and his account of the middle way exercised a deep and lasting influence on the development of madhyamaka philosophy in all four schools of buddhism in tibetthe present work contains nagarjuna's verses on the middle way accompanied by mabja jangchub tsöndrü's famed commentary, the ornament of reasoninspired by the buddha's teachings on profound emptiness in the prajnaparamita sutras, nagarjuna sets out to probe what appears to be the most fundamental facts of the world, challenging us to question even our most deeply ingrained ideas and what seem to be self-evident factsapart from some light creasing to the dust jacket at the top of the spine, very light spotting to the upper page edges and one small red spot on the lower page edges this book looks near new; a very attractive copy overallthe late khunu lama tenzin gyaltsen rinpoche, a renowned authority on the subject, often referred to this commentary as "the best there isoxfam bookshop kingsbridge in the root of the middle way, nagarjuna presents a magical method of reasoning, inviting everyone who encounters these lucid and fearless contemplations to follow him on a journey to the heart of transcendent insight" a visual outline of the commentary has been added that clearly shows the structure of each chapter and makes the arguments easier to followsee oxfam website for delivery information read moresharp, concise, and yet comprehensive, the ornament of reason has been cherished by generations of scholar-practitionersin a series of unassuming and penetrating investigations, he asks basic questions such as: "what does it mean for something to occur? what is meant by 'going' or by 'coming'? does the eye see? does fire burn fuel? what is an example of being right? what does it mean to be wrong? nagarjuna extends an invitation to open-minded and unprejudiced inquiry, and from his reader he asks for nothing more and nothing less than sincere and honest answersyet where are our answers? once we begin to follow nagarjuna's clear and direct steps, the gateway to the inconceivable emerges-perhaps unexpectedly
