The Clear Realization of the Compendium of Study Materials (84000)
FULL TEXT
Description
The title Śikṣāsamuccayābhisamaya means literally "The Clear Realization (abhisamaya) of the Compendium of Training (Śikṣāsamuccaya)" — it is a condensed verse synopsis or topical summary of the contents of Śāntideva's Śikṣāsamuccaya, structured in the abhisamaya genre (i.e., a mnemonic outline of a larger work's topics, analogous to how the Abhisamayālaṃkāra encapsulates the Prajñāpāramitā).
The text is quite short and functions as a compressed guide to the Śikṣāsamuccaya's structure, mapping its topics onto the four paths (accumulation, preparation, seeing, and meditation) and summarizing key categories of training.
