摘要

＂Self and other＂ themes, [including benefit, interest, protection, goal, exchange, sameness,] demonstrate the centrality of distinct beings and their self-interest and undermine the idea that selflessness or emptiness are keys to understanding Buddhist ethics. Self and other benefit are interrelated in a productive paradox, in which compassion benefits the compassionate.
