Recently, Doctor of Sciences (Sc.D), Professor of the Department of Religious Studies at the Institute of Philosophy of the Academy of Sciences, GANTUYAA Magsarjav, presented her new book titled "Чойрын таван боть," also known as The Five Fields of Study in Buddhist Philosophy.
According to MiddleAsianNews, this work represents a comprehensive study developed by Dr. Magsarjav for the systematic exploration of Buddhist philosophy. This concept includes five key areas that form the foundation of traditional Buddhist education programs aimed at achieving enlightenment.
The main areas of study include:
- Logic and Epistemology (Тшадма): analysis of reasoning and cognitive processes.
- Philosophy/Métaphysics (Парчин): study of the nature of reality and perfection.
- Madhyamaka (Ума): the concept of the Middle Way.
- Abhidharma (Чунгон): exploration of phenomenology and cosmology.
- Vinaya (Дулва): ethics and discipline.
Dr. Gantuyaa's work, released in 2026, covers these traditional academic areas of Buddhism and aims to popularize them in English.
