Note

In this passage, Klong chen pa discusses the characterological distinction between cause determined and goal sustained yānas (see also Yid bzhin mdzod kyi 'grel pa {116201}) as corresponding to two types of individual within the Mahāyāna. (See also 426 f. and Spyi don legs bshad {116126:49.3}).

Note

As in his Spyi don legs bshad (see the entry {116126:52.3}), Klong chen pa discusses the three ways the goal is actualized in Mantrayāna.

Note

By way of commentary to the author's Ngal gso trilogy, in this passage Klong chen pa takes up the three ways that the goal is actualized in Mantrayāna (see the entry from Grub mtha' mdzod {116506:268.1}).

Note

In this passage, 'Jigs med gling pa introduces the topic of Mantrayāna, distinguishing it from the cause oriented Lakṣanayāna. His presentation is actually a patchwork of material from Klong chen pa's writings on the topic, especially his Yid bzhin mdzod kyi 'grel pa {116201:660;204} and Shing rta chen po {116031:426;732}, and elsewhere.

Note

After discussing the distinction between Hīnayāna and Mahāyāna, and the subdivision of the latter into Pāramitāyāna and Mantrayāna, Yon tan rgya mtsho elaborates on the latter distinction in terms of "cause determined" and "goal sustained" approaches (based on Yid bzhin mdzod {116191} and 'Jigs med gling pa's autocommentary on Yon tan mdzod rtsa ba) (root text in bold).

Note

In the context of concluding his discussion of the four immeasurables, 'Jigs med gling pa takes up the distinction between rgyu'i theg pa and 'bras bu'i theg pa. His unacknowledged sources are Klong chen pa's lam rim works.

by David Higgins

Note

After a quotation, the author goes on [468.1] to distinguish the Bodhisattva mārga from the mu stegs can rnams kyi lam (which is lacking in shes rab) on the one hand, and the nyan thos rnams kyi lam (which is lacking in compassion) on the other.
