Dharmakīrti (English spelling)

Japanese: ダルマキールティ(英語表記)Dharmakīrti
Dharmakīrti (English spelling)
An Indian Buddhist logician around 650. In the Chinese translation of Buddhist scriptures, he is called Hossho. He refined the logical thought of Dignāga, the founder of Indian Buddhist logic. He argued that each moment exists from the perspective of truth, and that although we assume a stream of consciousness as a succession of moments and recognize the continuous existence of individuals, this is nothing more than something conceived by thought. His works include Nyāya-bindu (Essay on Logic) and Pramāṇavārttika (Criticism of Knowledge).
