Synopsis

The Mulamadhyamakakarika (Fundamental Wisdom (or Verses) of the Middle Way) was written by Master Nagarjuna, an Indian Buddhist philosopher of the 2nd century C.E. It is said that Mahayana Buddhism had arrived at its golden age at that time and that Nagarjuna was considered the highest authority in Buddhist society. The Mulamadhymakakarika was revered as the most conclusive of his several Buddhist works. Its extraordinary precise and simple expression suggests that it was written when Master Nagarjuna was mature in his Buddhist practice and research.
