This is done by critical reading of Sanskrit, Tibetan, and Chinese texts. Chapter One addresses Vasubandhu's hagiography and works. This thesis does not take the two-Vasubandhu theory brought by E. Frauwallner, because there is not sufficient evidence to accept the existences of two Vasubandhus. This thesis regards Vasubandhu as one who lived in 400-480 A.D. Chapter Two examines Vasubandhu's vijnana-paripama. First, based on Asanga's *Mahayana-samgraha, important ideas of Yogacara are surveyed. Secondly, sources of Vasubandhu's vijnana-paripama are introduced. Thirdly, Vasubandhu's vijnana-paripama is defined through the examination of Vasubandhu's *Trimsika-karika and its three extant commentaries. Chapter Three introduces parip.ama theory of the Samkhya-Yoga school. Historical accounts on the confrontation between Vasubandhu and the Samkhya-Yoga philosophers are also examined and concluded that there is no evidence of the existence of mutual influence of parinama theories between them.xi, 177 leaves ; 30 cm.engUniversity of Calgary graduate students retain copyright ownership and moral rights for their thesis.
