Frauwallner

@173.68.165.114:Frauwallner (1956), The Earliest Vinaya and the Beginnings of Buddhist Literature,mentions Yogacara only once, at p.21; he does not say that Tathāgatagarbha thought formed a separate school. According to Wiiliams (2008), Mahayana Buddhism: The Doctrinal Foundations,chpater 5 (The Tathāgatagarbha),note 1, Tathāgatagarbha is not a philosophical school, but an idea or notion.

Sorry, my mistake. It is supposed to be Frauwallner E. "Die Philosophie des Buddhismus," Berlin, 1956 (p.255-264, die Schule Saramatis). And works by Minoru Kiyota, etc. --173.68.165.114 (talk) 19:26, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
I can't find the term "Saramatis" in that book; could you be more specific,orprovide a quote? Tathāgatagarbha-thought is not regarded as a separate school of philosophy, as far as I know. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 21:44, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
The second chapter. --173.68.165.114 (talk) 22:42, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
Thanks; clarifying. Nevertheless, as far as I know, it's not usual regarded as a 'school of philosophy', but more as a 'current of thought'. But some adaptation must be possible. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 04:05, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
I expanded the text, including a note on Sāramati (娑囉末底), c.q. Maitreya-nātha. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 08:21, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
