48. I have based the translation on the Dunhuang (IOL Tib J 149), which reads ’dus byas la ni gang rtog against all Kangyur editions, which read ’dus ma byas la gang rtog (“that which is conceptualized as unconditioned”). The Dunhuang reading matches an early Tibetan commentary attributed to Puk Yeshé Yang (771–850 ce), which preserves the reading ’dus byas la ni gang rtog (Otokawa 1999, p. 151). The Kangyur reading does not fit the context, as the unconditioned (’dus ma byas) and nirvāṇa (mya ngan ’das) are quite often synonyms.
