Foreword<br />

The following “<str<strong>on</strong>g>Essays</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> <strong>Buddhism</strong>” do not c<strong>on</strong>stitute a graduated<br />

course <strong>on</strong> Buddhist Psychology, Logic, Criteriology, Ontology<br />

and Ethics, such as can be found in “The Norm” now in course of<br />

publicati<strong>on</strong>.<br />

Each essay forms a separate unit and can be read independently<br />

without reference to other essays. However, they have this in comm<strong>on</strong><br />

that the approach is n<strong>on</strong>-dogmatic, even when sayings of the<br />

Buddha are quoted by way of illustrati<strong>on</strong>. The approach is individualistic<br />

and psychological, which may enable each <strong>on</strong>e to solve his<br />

own problem for himself.<br />
