ABSTRACT
This Chapter aims to bring the Abhidharma Buddhist doctrine of two truths into conversation with Sellarsian distinction between the manifest and the scientific images of man-in-the-world. I agree with Sellars and offer additional reasons to argue that the task of fusing the two images must not be ignored by philosophers. The first part of the Chapter provides the necessary background for a reader unfamiliar with Abidharma Buddhist philosophy to understand the conception of reality and two truths. The second part then considers whether the Abhidharma philosophers have the resources to address the Sellarsian challenge as to how the two truths (images) may be fused. I argue that they have the resources to offer a philosophically rigorous solution to Sellarsian challenge.
