Tibetan manuscript from Dunhuang, no title and 2 more items
Contents
Language(s): Tibetan
1.Author:Incipit: 24r.1...das shIng mchog gi cho ga' mkhyenprayers
This manuscript is a scroll made up of small panels, each with 7-8 lines of Tibetan. The panels have been separated so that folio 24 contains the fragments of the first panels, folio 25 contains the next two panels, and folio 26 contains the last two panels.
The recto side of the first fragmentary panel contains the end of a text. Only the last syllable of the explicit appears, so that title is unidentified. A reference in the first line to acho gaindicates that the text refers to a ritual. There is a reference two lines further on to taking refuge in the medicine buddha (24r.3 sman pa'i rgyal po).
