Rethinking the Buddha: Early Buddhist Philosophy as Meditative Perception
Shulman, Eviatar (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
Although many see the four noble truths as the kernel of the historical Buddha's teachings, early texts reveal they are a later development. Shulman illustrates that these truths originated as observations to be cultivated during meditation, challenging the conventional view that the Buddha's teachings represent universal themes of human existence.
