CompareIOL Tib J 707/1andIOL Tib J 1372. This is a page from a version of the much-studied Tibetan Chan work,116/5126.3-129.3, containing a number of quotations from a variety of sutras. The fragment expresses a strong preference for a non-conceptual and immediate (cig car) approach to contemplation over a gradual (rim gyis) one, even for beginners on the path. The passages cited from thePrajñāpāramitā Sūtraand theLankāvatāra Sūtra(775) are also found in. The other work cited--theYang dag pa'i ye shes kyi yon tan bsam gyis mi khyab pa'i mdo(Tathāgataguṇajñānācintyaviṣayāvatāranirdeśa,852--passage not found) are not cited in. An English translation of this fragment may be found in55-58. Further readings include:,.
