Toh 581 intro.2

The Dhāraṇī for Obtaining the Ten Perfections intro.2

Language
English

intro.2

This text presents a single dhāraṇī for the attainment of the ten perfections¹ that does not appear to be contained in any other canonical text. No additional explanation is given, although in Meisezahl’s manuscript the dhāraṇī is followed by a “confession and purification” (gso sbyong) ritual. The text appears to be a more condensed version of the dhāraṇī for the six individual perfections presented in Toh 580, and an alternate version of the idea set forth in Toh 579. No Sanskrit title is provided for this text, and its title is given on the basis of the Tibetan alone.
