This roundtable on Jingjing Li's *Comparing Husserl's Phenomenology and Chinese Yogācāra in a Multicultural World* brings six Buddhist philosophy scholars together with the author to discuss and reflect on the book’s contributions to the fields of Yogācāra studies, Buddhist philosophy and comparative philosophy/philosophy of religion. We will discuss the book's comparative methodology, its comparative notions of intentionality, its advancement of the concept of non-conceptual yet intentional mental states, its sophisticated comparative treatment of essence, particularly in relationship to the later Yogācāra exposition of emptiness, and its innovative treatment of Yogācāra conceptions of intersubjectivity, agency, morality, and a socially oriented emancipatory path of practice.
