    Eighth and Ninth Consciousness — The Hidden Depths of Mind
    Oct 8 2025

    In this episode of BlueBuddha, we trace a profound path through Mahāyāna Buddhist thought — beginning with the teaching of śūnyatā (emptiness), moving into the Yogācāra doctrine of consciousness-only, and then descending into the deepest layers of mind: the eighth consciousness (ālaya-vijñāna, the karmic storehouse) and the ninth consciousness (amala-vijñāna, the stainless pure mind).
