for - Nagarjuna - wittgenstein

Abstract - (see below)

• I propose that we understand Nagarjuna’s primary aim as ‘therapeutic’,
• that is, concerned with the dissolution of philosophical problems.
• However, this ‘therapy’ should
  • neither be confined to the psychotherapeutic metaphor
  • nor should it be taken to imply a private enlightenment only available to philosophers.
• Instead, for
  • Nagarjuna and
  • Wittgenstein,
• philosophical problems are cast as a source of disquiet for all of us;
  • what their work offers is a soteriology, a means towards our salvation.
