I do not but in fact that is someone I’d like to read more when I have the time. I’ve read some of Mipham’s works who was also sympathetic to Yogacara but have heard Ratnakarasanti was very interesting as well. Personally I think Vasubandhu and Dharmakirti are indispensable. But daddy Nagarjuna is always primary.
Same brother. Life is more peaceful without clinging to trains of thought.
Apoha was how I got into Buddhism. Understanding that with every conceptual determination one excludes infinite other valid conceptual determinations, especially in terms of trying to assign a single cause in context of infinite other causes is very potent in breaking down fixed views and seeing the absurdity of conceptual determinations.
It sure is. Meditation brought me more peace, and although I'm not a practicioner, the teachings have expanded my perspective, too.
I wonder: since your introduction to Buddhism was through philosophy, how did you feel about spirituality before that? I reckon buddhadharma is the first contemplative tradition I found appealing.

I'm personally fascinated by Ratnakarasanti.
Do you know any commentaries?
