摘要
This study of Yogacara Buddhism in India and China is broken down into five parts, followed by a chapter of conclusions and a section on appendices. This is a richly complex study of the Yogacara tradition of Buddhism in India and China, divided in five parts:
1.The first is on Buddhism and henomenology，with close attention to elements in Husserl and Merleau-Ponty that are helpful for understanding Yogacara. 2.The second details the four basic models of Indian Buddhist thought-the five skandhas, conditioned co-arising triple world and the interplay of behavior/ meditation/ understanding-discussing how these models were explained in the Pali Nikayas and understood by later Buddhists. A chapter on the attainment of cessation nirodha-samapatti illustrates some of the intricate ways in which these models were deployed. 3.The third dicusses karma, Meditation and epistemology，from Pali Abhidhamma and Nagarjuna to Yogacara. 4.Part four presents texts, translations and comparative analysis of Vasubandhu's Trimsika with the Chinese versions by Paramartha and suan-tsang. 5.Part five deals with the Che'eng Wei-shi tun and Yogacara in China.
