TY - GEN AB - "Buddhist Philosophy of Consciousness brings Buddhist voices to the study of consciousness. This book explores a variety of different Buddhist approaches to consciousness that developed out of the Buddhist theory of non-self. Topics taken up in these investigations include: how we are able to cognize our own cognitions; whether all conscious states involve conceptualization; whether distinct forms of cognition can operate simultaneously in a single mental stream; whether non-existent entities can serve as intentional objects; and does consciousness have an intrinsic nature, or can it only be characterized functionally? These questions have all featured in recent debates in consciousness studies. The answers that Buddhist philosophers developed to such questions are worth examining just because they may represent novel approaches to questions about consciousness"-- AU - Siderits, Mark, AU - Keng, Ching AU - Spackman, John CN - BQ4570.P76 ID - 1419532 KW - Consciousness LK - https://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=ip,shib&db=nlebk&AN=2682998&site=ehost-live&scope=site N2 - "Buddhist Philosophy of Consciousness brings Buddhist voices to the study of consciousness.
