On the Good in Aristotle and Early Buddhism: A Response to Abraham V\u00e9lez<\/em><\/h3>\n

Damien Keown
\nUniversity of London, Goldsmiths<\/p>\n

In an earlier publication I compared Aristotelian and Buddhist concepts of the consummate good. Abraham V\u00e9lez de Cea has claimed I misrepresent the nature of the good by restricting it to certain psychic states and excluding a range of other goods acknowledged by Aristotle and the Buddha. My aim here is to show that my understanding of the good is not the narrow one V\u00e9lez suggests. The article concludes with some observations on the relationship between moral and non-moral good in Buddhism.<\/p>\n
