Mulamadhyamakakarika

null
Book •
Nagarjuna's Mulamadhyamakakarika, or "Fundamental Verses of the Middle Way," is a foundational text of Madhyamaka philosophy, a school of Mahayana Buddhism.

It systematically dismantles various philosophical positions through the use of reductio ad absurdum arguments, demonstrating the emptiness (sunyata) of all phenomena.

The text emphasizes the interdependent nature of reality, rejecting both eternalism and nihilism.

Nagarjuna's profound insights into the nature of reality and the limitations of language have had a lasting impact on Buddhist thought and philosophy.

The Mulamadhyamakakarika remains a central text for scholars and practitioners of Madhyamaka.
