[[sems tsam pa]] - [[Mind-Only]] School, Chittamatra. A [[Mahayana]] school of Buddhist philosophy propagated by the great master [[Asanga]] and his followers. Founded on the Lankavatara Sutra and other scriptures, its main premise is that all phenomena are only mind, i.e. mental perceptions that appear within the [[All-ground]] consciousness due to habitual tendencies. Positively, this view relinquishes the fixation on a solid reality. Negatively, there is still clinging to a truly existing 'mind' within which everything takes place [RY]
