Chandra Kirti: Beyond Nihilism
This chapter explores Chandra Kirti's philosophical arguments against nihilism, advocating for a view of reality based on interdependence rather than foundationalism. It emphasizes the importance of a holistic understanding of his teachings to accurately interpret concepts such as identity, self, and conventional reality. Through analogies like the chariot and currency, it illustrates how perceptions of personhood and value are socially constructed rather than inherent, urging a shift away from attachment to the notions of 'I' and 'mine'.
