Welcome to My Dharmakaya, an introduction to Buddhist philosophy. These pages contain a layman’s presentation of the key concepts and beliefs of Mahayana Buddhism, with cursory treatments of pre- and non-Mahayana developments. Additional treatment is given to the other major philosophical and religious environments which gave rise to, and shaped, Buddhist thought.
This site is written for a modern skeptic who has been given the gifts of reason and disillusionment. This is not a site for those who are willing to rush headlong into a conversion, to be born again, or to prove a point to their opponents.
Basic teachings of Buddhism are described here, with a separate emphasis on Mahayana innovations. There are separate sections devoted to prominent historical (and mythological) figures, influential texts, and significant schools of Buddhism.
