Texts in this fragment


Single fol. with subject heading: Rab tu gnas pa'i cho ga la. On consecration ritual for Chortens. It mentions eye opening in the final lines, but the end is missing (and so are the subsequent parts of the ritual). Since its phraseology doesn't seem to be reflected in the consecration ritual texts found in the Tanjur, it is possible this is a Tibetan composition. I think Tibetans only began performing consecrations on their own late in the 12th century. (Dan Martin's Hurried Notes)
