About this listen

Mark Siderits's The Buddha's Teachings As Philosophy explores three different systems of thought that arose from core claims of the Buddha. By detailing and critically examining key arguments made by the Buddha and developed by later Buddhist philosophers, Siderits investigates the Buddha's teachings as philosophy: a set of claims—in this case, claims about the nature of the world and our place in it—supported by rational argumentation and, here, developed with a variety of systematic results. The Buddha's Teachings As Philosophy will be especially useful to students of philosophy, religious studies, and comparative religion—to anyone, in fact, encountering Buddhist philosophy for the first time. Among the issues discussed by Siderits are those regarded as particularly challenging in the 21st century, such as karma and rebirth and the nature of nirvana.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Best introduction to Buddhist philosophy

This is the best intro to Buddhist philosophy out there. Siderits is clear, accessible, and rigorous. The narrator is excellent as well.
