Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhi

Post by Ceisiwr »

Does anyone know where I can find an English translation of Ratnakīrti's defence of momentariness, the Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhi (anvayātmikā), and/or his argument for the illusionary nature of dhammas, the Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhi (vyatirekātmikā)?
“Knowing that this body is just like foam,
understanding it has the nature of a mirage,
cutting off Māra’s flower-tipped arrows,
one should go beyond the King of Death’s sight.”
