81. The Chapter on Disputes describes the seven means for “quelling” or “settling” a dispute as (1) quell in person (Tib. mngon sum zhi ba; Skt. saṃmukhaṃ śamatha); (2) through recourse to memory (Tib. dran ’dul ’os; Skt. smṛtyāvinaya); (3) dismissing by reason of insanity (Tib. ma myos ’dul ’os; Skt. amūḍhavinaya); (4) by votes (tshul shing dag ni blang ba; Skt. chalākāgrahaṇa); (5) carrying out an investigation into the nature of an issue (Tib. de yi ngo bo tshol gzhug; Skt. tatsvabhāvaiṣīya); (6) by sweeping it under the rug or, more literally, spreading over with grass (Tib. rtswa bkram lta bur ’os pa; Skt. tṛṇaprastāraka); and (7) by taking an oath (Tib. khas blang bar ‘os pa; Skt. pratijñākāraka).
