This book considers the two ways in which the notion of views are usually understood. Are we to understand right-view as a correction of wrong-views (the opposition understanding) or is the aim of the Buddhist path the overcoming of all views, even right-view (the no-views understanding)? The author argues that neither approach is correct. Instead he suggests that the early texts do not understand right-view as a correction of wrong-view, but as a detached order of seeing, completely different from the attitude of holding to any view, wrong or right.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51865539510560,"sku":"NEW0415342937","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61yPS0aHGsL.jpg?v=1781664069","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-notion-of-ditthi-in-theravada-buddhism-the-point-of-view-routledge-critical-studies-in-buddhism-0415342937","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
