空教

The teaching that all is unreal. The [lang id =1028]法相宗 Dharmalakṣaṇa School divided Buddha's teaching into three periods:

(1) the Hīnayāna period, teaching that [lang id =1028]法有 things are real;

(2) the [lang id =1028]般若 (sa) prajñā period, that [lang id =1028]法 [lang id =1028]空things are unreal;

(3) the Huayan and Lotus period of the middle or transcendental doctrine [lang id =1028]中道教.
