Vol. I, P. 80, l 10]—Mādhyamika (or Śūnyavāda, Mādhyamikavāda, Nairātmyavāda) is the name of one of the four schools of Buddhism, the other three being (i) Sautrāntika, (ii) Vaibhāṣika (or Āryasamitīya or Sarvāstivāda) and (iii) Yogācāra (or Vijñānavāda). The Mādhyamika school domes reality of the ends, being (bhāva) and non-being (abhāva) and affirm it of the centre (madhya) only, which is neither being nor non-being but simply ‘śūnya’ or ‘emptyness’.
