There is no "I" in "You"

Syncretists angling for a more rational interpretation of buddhism.  That's been the trend ever since it was repackaged as a product for a western audience.

I don't think that's true of Priest, in particular. Western philosophy has tended to overlook a great many  Eastern philosophers like Nagarjuna (who is as influential east of the Euphrates as Aristotle is in the west), and they've been advocates for correcting this.


I think it's a useful contribution to metaphysics to challenge armchair-notions like substance theory from a more skeptical tradition.
