宗薩仁玻切: Middle Way 1

Our beloved Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche 宗薩 , asked such question, "what is the Characteristic of a characteristic?" when he gave the speech on "Middle Way", stressing on the importance of defining an object in a pholisophical debate.

Middle Way states the logic thinking of Buddhism, naming anything excludes extreme, however, Rinpoche gave about 100 hours session on this subject, here in Taipei.

Thus, what is the Characteristic of a characteristic?

If a characteristic does not fall into the following 3 faults, it can be define as a characteristic.
1. being too specific
2. being too pervasive
3. being impossible
