A Manual of Key Buddhist Terms

by Thupten K. Rikey (Tr.) and Andrew Ruskin (Tr.)

One must have a good working knowledge of Buddhist terminology in order to comprehend Buddhism clearly. This text, written by an 8th-century Tibetan translator named Kaba Paltseg, introduces us to a world of scientifically-classified Buddhist terminology. The author provides comprehensive lists with commentaries of the terms through which we gain access to Buddhist philosophy, psychology, cosmology and so forth.
