He starts with a sketch of the Buddha and the Dharma, and highlights the origins of Buddhism in India. He then considers specific details of the Dharma with special attention to Buddhist metaphysics and epistemology, and examines the development of Buddhism in China, Japan, and Tibet, concluding with the ideas of the Dalai Lama and Thich Nhat Hanh. In each chapter he includes explanations of key terms and teachings, excerpts from primary source materials, and presentations of the arguments for each position. His book will be an invaluable guide for all who are interested in this rich and vibrant philosophy. 410 0$aCambridge introductions to philosophy. 606 $aBuddhist philosophy$vTextbooks 615 0$aBuddhist philosophy 676 $a181.043 700 $aLaumakis$b Stephen J.$01032542 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454737803321 996 $aAn introduction to Buddhist philosophy$92450486 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06533nam 22018735 450 001 9910791866403321 005 20230725020237.0 010 $a1-283-00132-2 010 $a9786613001320 010 $a1-4008-3807-X 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400838073 035 $a(CKB)2560000000059076 035 $a(EBL)664624 035 $a(OCoLC)705945458 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000664574 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12301823 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000664574 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10613023 035 $a(PQKB)10640546 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000473317 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11310289 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000473317 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10436871 035 $a(PQKB)10987576 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4435030 035 $a(DE-B1597)446816 035 $a(OCoLC)979593676 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400838073 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC664624 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL664624 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10448499 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000059076 100 $a20190708d2011 fg 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSoul Dust $eThe Magic of Consciousness /$fNicholas Humphrey 205 $aCourse Book 210 1$aPrinceton, NJ :$cPrinceton University Press,$d[2011] 210 4$dİ2011 215 $a1 online resource (256 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-691-15637-9 311 $a0-691-13862-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (pages 217-238) and index. 327 $tFrontmatter --$tContents --$tInvitation --$tPrelude --$t1.

In Soul Dust, the psychologist Nicholas Humphrey, a leading figure in consciousness research, proposes a startling new theory. Consciousness, he argues, is nothing less than a magical-mystery show that we stage for ourselves inside our own heads. This self-made show lights up the world for us and makes us feel special and transcendent. Thus consciousness paves the way for spirituality, and allows us, as human beings, to reap the rewards, and anxieties, of living in what Humphrey calls the "soul niche.? Tightly argued, intellectually gripping, and a joy to read, Soul Dust provides answers to the deepest questions. It shows how the problem of consciousness merges with questions that obsess us all--how life should be lived and the fear of death. Resting firmly on neuroscience and evolutionary theory, and drawing a wealth of insights from philosophy and literature, Soul Dust is an uncompromising yet life-affirming work--one that never loses sight of the majesty and wonder of consciousness. 606 $aConsciousness 610 $aAldous Huxley. 610 $aAnalogy. 610 $aAnthony Marcel. 610 $aAnthropologist. 610 $aBehavior. 610 $aBuddhism. 610 $aCheating death. 610 $aChildlessness. 610 $aChimpanzee. 610 $aChristopher Isherwood. 610 $aConcept. 610 $aConsciousness. 610 $aCulture. 610 $aDaniel Dennett. 610 $aDeath anxiety (psychology). 610 $aDecision-making. 610 $aDelay differential equation. 610 $aDevelopmental psychology. 610 $aDouglas Hofstadter. 610 $aDualism (philosophy of mind). 610 $aDylan Evans. 610 $aEmergence. 610 $aEnthusiasm. 610 $aExistence. 610 $aExplanation. 610 $aFaber and Faber. 610 $aFeeling. 610 $aGeorge Santayana. 610 $aGod. 610 $aHard problem of consciousness. 610 $aHeat death of the universe. 610 $aHuman. 610 $aIllustration. 610 $aIncorruptibility. 610 $aIndication (medicine). 610 $aIndividualism. 610 $aIndividuation. 610 $aIneffability. 610 $aInstance (computer science). 610 $aInstant. 610 $aIntentionality. 610 $aJohansson. 610 $aLecture. 610 $aLiterary agent. 610 $aLudwig Wittgenstein. 610 $aMatt Ridley. 610 $aMental representation. 610 $aMescaline. 610 $aMidwife. 610 $aMortality salience. 610 $aNarrative. 610 $aNiche construction. 610 $aPenguin Books. 610 $aPerception. 610 $aPersonhood. 610 $aPessimism. 610 $aPhenomenon. 610 $aPhilosopher. 610 $aPhilosophical zombie. 610 $aPhilosophy. 610 $aPity. 610 $aPrecognition. 610 $aPrinciple. 610 $aProbability. 610 $aPsychology. 610 $aQualia. 610 $aReality. 610 $aReason. 610 $aReligion. 610 $aRequirement. 610 $aRoss Anderson. 610 $aRupert Sheldrake. 610 $aRuth Brandon. 610 $aScience. 610 $aScientist. 610 $aSelf-concept. 610 $aSelf-consciousness. 610 $aSelf-image. 610 $aSeminar. 610 $aSense. 610 $aSpecial Period. 610 $aSpirituality. 610 $aStimulation. 610 $aStrange loop. 610 $aSuffering. 610 $aSuggestion. 610 $aTermite. 610 $aTerror management theory. 610 $aThe Dog Beneath the Skin. 610 $aThe Philosopher. 610 $aThe Various. 610 $aTheory. 610 $aThomas Kuhn. 610 $aThought experiment. 610 $aThought. 610 $aUncertainty. 610 $aUniqueness. 610 $aVisual system. 610 $aW.
