p.12 thesis:
To understand suffering and its alleviation the research enlists, from the Mahayana Buddhist wisdom tradition, the Prasangika-Madhyamika philosophical approach to the definition of suffering. This approach considers practices of exploration and interpretation crucial to the definition and alleviation of suffering.
Practitioners will need to learn about the Prasangika-Madhyamika philosophical approach to the definition of suffering and its alleviation. This will require an understanding of the Mahayana Buddhist doctrine of non-self.
