Tibetan manuscript from Dunhuang

Language(s): Tibetan

Author:
Title: ga' la'i rtse mo theg pa chen po'i mdo' bshad pa/
Title: (Śikhara-mahāyāna-sūtra-bhāṣya?)

Ch. 9. I. 50, Pothī; 44.8 c. x 8.5 c.: foll. 21, numbered (letters) 2-7, 15-18, 20-21, (kha-ja, ba-tsha, wa-zha), 6 unnumbered, 1 numbered k+ka and 2 unnumbered; ll. 8, 7 and 6: dbu-can.

Defective at the beginning; title from the colophon. This commentary is not to be found in Mdo-ḥgrel. There are two commentaries (vyākhyāna and miśraka-vyākhyā) on the Gayā-śīrṣa-sūtra (ga-ya-mgo'i-ri), Bstan-ḥgyur, Mdo, XXXIV. 12 and 13 ( III, p. 364 ), Bkaḥ-ḥgyur, Mdo, V. 4. The Gayā-śīrṣa, like this text, is a Sūtra of the Vijñānavādins.

Deals with the Bhūmis of the Bodhisattva; mention of a Subhūti-pariccheda-bhāṣya (Rab-ḥbyord-gyi-leḥur-bśad-pa).
