Nagarjuna is the most influential of all Buddhist thinkers following the Buddha himself. Throughout his works, Nagarjuna calls on us to completely abandon all our views. But how could anyone possibly do that? This book shows not only how Nagarjuna's truly radical teaching of "abelief" makes perfect sense within his Buddhist philosophy, but how it stands at the summit of his religious mission to care for all living beings. Rather than treating any one aspect of Nagarjuna's ideas in isolation, here he emerges as forging a single system of thought and practice, one that challenges the very ways in which we think about religion and philosophy.
