Book Summary
Exploring the philosophical concerns of the nature of self, this book draws from
two of the most influential Indian masters, Sankara and Santideva. Todd
demonstrates that an ethics of altruism is still possible within a metaphysics
which assumes there to be no independent self. A new ethical model based on the
notions of 'flickering consciousness' and 'constructive altruism' is proposed.By
comparing the metaphysics and ethics of Sankara and Santideva, Todd shows that
the methodologies and aims of these Buddhist and Hindu masters trace remarkably
similar cross-cutting paths. Treating Buddhism and Hinduism with equal respect,
this book compares and reinterprets the Indian material so as to engage with
contemporary
