[Buddha-l] Conservative and liberal Buddhists

[Dan Lusthaus]

For a traditional Buddhist account that holds nirvana to be nonsense (the 
position of Nagarjuna and Candrakirti), please see the brilliant essay by 
Bibhuti Yadav, "Negation, Nirvana, Nonsense," publ. in the JAAS back in 
1977, available as a free download at 
http://openpdf.com/ebook/nirvana-pdf.html Also contains an insightful 
discussion on negation in Dharmakirti. An overlooked gem of Buddhist 
scholarship.
