This book provides an analyzed translation of part of Jam-yang-zhay-pa’s Decisive Analysis of the Middle, also called Great Exposition of the Middle, which came to be the normative textbook for the study of Chandrakīrti’s Middle Way treatise in the Go-mang College of Dre-pung Monastery. Translated here is the section on what is negated in the doctrine of emptiness in general in the Middle Way School and in the Autonomy School in particular. Tsong-kha-pa Lo-sang-drag-pa, the founder of the Ge-lug tradition, emphasized what is rejected in the view of emptiness since without clearly identifying what veils realization of emptiness one cannot achieve liberation.
