Butön Rinchen Drup (bu ston rin chen grub, 1290–1364) cites the Buddha’s response to the bodhisattva Viśeṣacintin’s second question in Cluster of Scriptures,⁶ his explanation of Haribhadra’s Commentary on Ornament for the Clear Realizations (Abhisamayālaṅkāravṛtti), in the section “Summarizing the Meaning of the Buddha’s Instructions through One Phenomenon.”⁷ The fifteenth-century Tibetan scholar Pekar Sangpo⁸ groups this text under “Sūtras Explaining the Mental States of Bodhisattvas”⁹ in his Presentation of the Sūtras in the Kangyur ¹⁰ and asserts that this sūtra teaches the doctrine that the three provisional vehicles of the śrāvaka, pratyekabuddha, and bodhisattva lead to the one final vehicle of buddhahood.¹¹
