About this product
Product Information
The Abhisamayalamkara summarizes all the topics in the vast body of the Perfection of Wisdom sutras. To understand this extraordinarily condensed text, it is necessary to have the assistance of reliable Indian and Tibetan commentaries. Together, they not only discuss the hidden meaning of the Perfection of Wisdom sutras-paths and grounds-but also serve as a basis for further reflection on the explicit topic of these sutras-the principle of emptiness-and how it is to be understood on the progressive levels of realization of bodhisattvas.

Reviews
Maitreya's Ornament of Clear Realization, along with its commentaries, opens a window into the vast landscape of the prajnaparamita sutras, territory that has been largely left unexplored by Western scholars and practitioners. These sutras explicitly teach the nature of emptiness, but their hidden meaning--which is revealed in these texts--explains how the clear realization of emptiness progressively arises in the minds of practitioners as they cultivate increasingly subtler stages of insight into the true nature of phenomena. Karl Brunnholzl's breathtaking scholarship, lucid translations, and deep insight into the meaning of these texts, brings this vast body of teachings to life. Gone Beyond is bound to be an invaluable reference work for scholars and practitioners for years to come., Prajnaparamita literature, which deals with the Mahayana doctrine of emptiness, is notoriously impenetrable, certainly not the sort of material that one can jump right into, no matter how fine the translation. However, Brunnholzl provides a masterful introduction that surveys the history of the text and its many Tibetan commentaries, and makes sense of the complex subject matter., Understanding the prajnaparamita is very important for the development of wisdom, and the Abhisamayalankara is a principal text on that subject. The commentary by the Fifth Shamarpa which is translated here is concise, pithy, and easy to understand. That it has been augmented with commentaries by the Seventh and Eighth Karmapas makes this a valuable volume indeed, one that will benefit many people. I am grateful that this book has been published., "Concise, pithy, and easy to understand.
