*Madhyamaka {du ma chen po}. Middle way. Madhyamaka has two main schools, Svatantrika and Prasangika. The first one considers that, in terms of absolute truth, phenomena have no true existence whatsoever; but in terms of relative truth, phenomena appear through the combination of causes and conditions, perform their function, and have a verifiable conventional existence.  The second school asserts that, from both an absolute and a relative point of view, phenomena are totally devoid of existence and cannot be characterized by any concept such as "existent," "nonexistent," "both existent and nonexistent," or "neither existent nor nonexistent." For the Prasangikas, absolute truth is the nondual pristine wisdom of the Buddhas, free from conceptual elaboration. [[RY]]

Madhyamaka ([[dbu ma]])
*Derived from the Sanskrit expression madhyamapratipad, meaning the "Middle Way" between the extremes of eternalism and nihilism, which was expounded by Śākyamuni Buddha, Madhyamaka ([[dbu ma]]) is the name of the most influential among the four classical schools of Indian Buddhist philosophy. Within the context of the Madhyamaka school, the Middle Way refers to the doctrine of emptiness ([[śūnyatā]]), which is held to be the true nature of all things. According to this view, all phenomena, whether mental or physical, cannot be found to possess any independent or self-validating nature, and their existence and identity are regarded as valid only within a relative framework of worldly convention. Further, it is propounded that not only do phenomena exist solely in dependence upon causes and conditions, but even their identities depend on conceptions and labelling. Nevertheless, this school holds that, unlike mere fantasies, such as unicorns for example, phenomena do exist conventionally and their ontology must be accepted as valid. Such a metaphysical position is designated the "Middle Way" in that it is the mid-point between the extremes of total non-existence or nihilism and the positing of an ultimate, independent existence of reality, or eternalism. Founded by Nāgārjuna in the second century AD, the Madhyamaka school was later classified into two subdivisions, based on different interpretations of Nāgārjuna's views which were made by Buddhapalita and Bhavaviveka, namely: the Prāsaṅgika, who utilise only consequential reasoning ([[prasaṅga]]) and the Svātantrika, who utilise independent syllogisms ([[svatantra]]). A further distinction, which was developed subsequently in Tibet, differentiates between this outer Madhyamaka, which emphasises dialectics as a means of realising the intrinsic emptiness ([[rang stong]]) of all things, and the inner Great Madhyamaka ([[dbu ma chen po]]) which emphasises meditative insight into the nature of buddha-attributes. These attributes are viewed as a coalescence of pure appearance and emptiness, which is extraneously empty ([[gzhan stong]]) of all the impure phenomena associated with cyclic existence. On Madhyamaka in general, see D.S. Ruegg, The Literature of the Madhyamaka School of Philosophy in India; Paul Williams, Mahāyāna Buddhism, pp. 55-76; and for the rNying-ma interpretation of Madhyamaka, see bDud-'joms Rin-po-che, NSTB, pp. 162-186.
