17. The Degé reads dga’ ba med pa, “they are without joy” (or, at best, “they are not elated”). Here we follow the text of the Dunhuang manuscript: dka’ ba med pa. This agrees with the Chinese reading wunan 無難 (Taishō 785, XVII 724c6): it is executed “without difficulty.” Note the similarity in orthography between dga’ ba and dka’ ba.
