DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Unfolding the philosophical nature of <em>Yogac?ra</em></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Kazal Barua</strong></p>\n<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p>\n<p><em>Yog?c?ra</em> is one of the principle schools that constitute <em>Mah?y?na</em> Buddhism. It is usually categorized under Indian idealistic philosophy. But debates and disputes have been continuing among the modern scholars regarding whether <em>yog?c?ra</em> is idealism or not or what form of idealism. Some scholars apply the terms &lsquo\;absolute idealism&rsquo\; or &lsquo\;monistic idealism&rsquo\; to it. But some other scholars disagree to call it idealism as it is understood in the western philosophy and attributes a different name to it. Paul Williams uses the term &lsquo\;dynamic idealism&rsquo\; to <em>yog?c?ra</em>. Yet there are others who are completely unwilling to attribute the term idealism to it such as\, Thomas A Kochumuttom calls it as &lsquo\;Realistic Pluralism&rdquo\;. But the controversy is still continuing regarding the topic and thus it is worthy of profound consideration.</p>\n<p>This paper is an attempt to explore the philosophical nature of <em>yog?c?ra</em>. First I will present a brief discussion on the concept of Idealism as it is explained in the western philosophy. Then I will focus on the fundamental doctrines of <em>yog?c?ra</em> philosophy. After that I will discuss the concepts and arguments offered by the modern scholars and finally based on this over all discussion I will draw my conclusions determining the form of <em>Yog?c?ra</em>.</p>\n\n<p>Key words: <strong>Idealism in the western philosophy\, findamenta doctrines of <em>Yog?c?ra</em>\, prevalent concepts\, philosophical nature <em>Yog?c?ra</em></strong><em>.</em></p>
