In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: Google Books: The Crystal Mirror of Philosophical SystemsWhen a reason is Contradictory (i.e., 鈥渨here the reason and the predicate are opposites鈥�) refers to the 鈥�Three Fallacies鈥� (of a Logical Reason) which are known in Tibetan as ltar snang gsum.鈥擜ccordingly, [while discussing the standpoints of the Vai艣e峁kas and Naiy膩yikas]: [...] The Vai艣e峁kas admit three sources of valid cognition: perception, inference, and scripture; the Naiy膩yikas admit those three and also admit comparison as a source of valid cognition, making four. Also, both schools assert three types of inference, three aspects of perfect logical reasons that are the basis of those inferences, and three fallacies that subvert a reason [e.g., when a reason is contradictory]. I will not address here their standpoints on the sixteen or eight categories of logic.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha鈥檚 words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (惫补箩谤补测腻苍补) are collected indepently.
