Йогическое восприятие

У кого есть Journal of Indian Philosophy, прочитайте вторую статью августовского номера от 2003 г. Называется статья DHARMAKIRTI AND HIS COMMENTATORS ON YOGIPRATYAKSA.

Так к слову, Валпола Рахула родился в 1907. Есть какая-нибудь его биография? Интересно чем он сейчас занимается.

As already mentioned, the Shurangama is connected with enlightenment of the well-known Ming Dynasty Ch'an Master Han-shan Te-ch'ing. According to his autobiography, he used the work to verity his enlightenment. He explains in his autobiography that he had never heard lectures on the Sutra and did not understand its meaning at all. Then, according to his own account, he studied the Sutra using the power of yoga pratyaksa, or direct veridical perception, claiming that it is impossible to grasp the meaning of the work if one gives rise to a even a little bit of discriminating consciousness. After eight months of constant study, he tells us that he came to a total understanding of the work that was devoid of doubt.
