Traditionally, Buddhist philosophy has seemingly rejected the autonomous self. In Western philosophy, free will and the philosophy of action are established areas of research. This book presents a comprehensive analytical review of extant scholarship on perspectives on free will. It studies and refutes the most powerful Western and Buddhist philosophical objections to free will and explores the possibility that a form of agency may in fact exist within Buddhism. Providing a detailed explanation of how Buddhist meditation increases self-regulative mind-control abilities, the author argues that the Buddhist path is designed to produce meditation virtuosos exhibiting mind-control abilities far exceeding the free-will advocate’s ability to ‘do otherwise’ or have their choices be ‘up to’ them. Based on the empirically-supported mind-control cultivated by these meditation virtuosos, the book proposes the principle of, ‘Buddhist Soft Compatibilism’, a theory of ‘freedom of the mind’ that entails freedoms of the will, attention, emotion and action, compatible with both determinism and indeterminism.Buddhism, Meditation and Free Will will be of interest to Buddhist and Western philosophers and academics interested in comparative philosophy, free will, philosophy of action, metaphysics, ethics and Religious Studies.

Recenzijas

This book is an excellent example of recent renewed interest in systematic engagement with Buddhist philosophy. Rather than focusing on an exegesis of historical texts, Repetti uses the Buddhist philosophical sources for doing philosophy by developing an intriguing, sophisticated, and characteristically Buddhist approach to the free will problem. Repetti's book shows vividly how the intellectual encounter with Buddhist philosophy can invigorate contemporary philosophical debates.

Jan Westerhoff, University of Oxford, UK

This fascinating and discerning study brings arguments and concepts from Western philosophy into dialogue with classical Buddhist ideas. Based on the latter, it argues for the possibility of a freedom of mind and will that is seen as attainable by advanced practitioners of the Buddhist path.

Peter Harvey, retired Professor of Buddhist Studies, University of Sunderland, UK

Rick Repetti is the leading expert in the world on Buddhism and free will. Some say free will is a Western invention, a requirement of the view that posits a God who rewards and punishes for all eternity. Buddhists have no such God, but Repetti forcefully and eloquently argues they too have a conception of free will to account for karma and responsibility. This is cross-cultural philosophy at its very best.
