| 摘要 | This article focuses on the three natures (trisvabhāva) or three characters (trilakṣaṇa) doctrine as described in Indian Yogācāra treatises. This concept is fundamental to Yogācāra epistemology and soteriology, but terminology employed by contemporary buddhologists misconstrues and misrepresents some of its most important features, particularly with regard to the ‘ultimately real nature’ (pariniṣpanna-svabhāva), which is equated with terms that connote ultimate reality like ultimate truth (paramārtha), emptiness (śūnyatā), and reality limit (bhūta-koṭi), and which is described as a ‘purifying object of observation’ (viśuddhālambana) that facilitates insight when properly understood by meditators. The article discusses how it is described in a range of Yogācāra treatises and compares this with how it has been conceived in academic studies of Indic Yogācāra literature. |
