Alright so some of the Tibetans are doing mindfulness of breathing but others they dont teach that.
So its just as the traditions have developed they have different meditation methods.
little more common in Tibetan but its both of them have a lot of other practices that they feel are more important and more useful.
So thats what mostly gets taught.
Nagarjuna is for the Mayana, isnt it Nagarjuna is claimed by the Mayana to be one of its founders but it, Mayana Buddhism had arisen before Nagarjuna was born.
And reading what he has to say would say he had a great deal of respect for the early teachings just from what he says in there.
He really has a lot of respect for that and hes really talking against the Savastavadana Abhidharma.
This was the one that went from Kashmir into Afghanistan and eventually to China.
and they thought that the past and the future existed.
So they wouldnt agree with me that time is an illusion.
They thought that all three times existed past, present, and future.
And that other things had essences.
And so this is what Nagarjuna is talking about.
And hes really trying to steer the discussion really back to the early teachings of the Buddha.
So, yeah, he has Mahayana understanding of emptiness.
Maybe its that Mahayana has a Nagarjuna understanding of emptiness.
They picked it up from him.
But he also has a great reverence for the early sutras and the teachings of the Buddha.
So would say hes between the two.
But the Mahayana wouldnt agree with me.
They want to claim him as their own.
But they dont have mindfulness practice.
No, they do have mindfulness practices.
And so there you wouldnt find necessarily a lot of practices being done, but being talked about.
Theres also practices in the Golupa tradition that are practiced.
