Question
This philosopher refuted the doctrine of “Personalism” by arguing that fire cannot be different from its fuel, since they do not “reach” for each other like a man and a woman. This philosopher also argued that a lamp cannot illuminate itself because there is no darkness present where a lamp is. This philosopher revived a paradoxical argument called the “tetralemma,” which can be summarized as “Not A, Not B, Not ‘A and B’, Neither A Nor B.” Some (*) Western scholars have interpreted this philosopher along Kantian lines for propounding the “two truths” doctrine. This philosopher’s argument that all dharmas lacked “substance,” or svabhava (svuh-BAH-vuh), became the central idea of his Madhyamaka (MUH-dyuh-muh-kuh) school. For 10 points, name this Buddhist philosopher famous for his theory of sunyatta, or “emptiness.” ■END■
