Jonang school

The Jonang school is a Tibetan Buddhist tradition known for emphasizing the practice of *shentong* view, which sees ultimate reality as empty of inherent existence but inherently capable of compassion and wisdom. Founded in the 12th century, it developed distinctive teachings on mind and space, and emphasizes the importance of meditation, philosophical study, and compassion. Historically, it was marginalized by other Tibetan schools but experienced a revival in recent decades. Overall, Jonang offers a unique perspective within Tibetan Buddhism, focusing on the interplay between emptiness and the potential for enlightened qualities.
