The Chittamatra (Skt. Cittamātra; Tib. སེམས་ཙམ་པ་, Semtsampa; Wyl. sems tsam pa) or 'Mind Only' School is a Mahayana school founded by Asanga. Its followers say that all phenomena are merely mind—the all-ground consciousness manifesting as environment, objects and the physical body, as a result of habitual tendencies stored within the all-ground.

Tenets

三性 The Three Natures

They divide all phenomena into the ‘three natures’:

  • 遍計所執性 the imputed or 'imaginary',
  • 依他起性 the dependent, and
  • 圓成實性 the truly established.

唯識宗關於二諦的見地 The Chittamatra View of the Two Truths

Khenpo Ngakchung says:

All the dualistic phenomena of the imputed nature and the mind and mental phenomena of the dependent nature are the deceiving phenomena of delusion, the relative truth. The essence of the dependent nature, which is the naturally luminous consciousness, and the fully established nature, which is the fact that this [i.e., the dependent nature] is empty of the dualistic projections of the imputed nature—comprising the nature of reality and wisdom—are said to be the absolute truth.

Subschools

There are two subschools of Mind Only:

  1. 真相/有相唯識宗 True Aspectarians and
  2. 假相/無相唯識宗 False Aspectarians.
