English	Now in the snowy land of Tibet, the great and venerable lord Tsongkhapa was unrivaled in his activities for the sake of the Buddha’s teaching. And with regard to his writings, which are clear and excellently composed, I do indeed feel the greatest respect and gratitude. Nevertheless, there are still some differences between his position and the view of the supreme and holy masters of the earlier tradition; and it is the responsibility of those who uphold that same tradition to treasure its teachings, establishing them by scripture and reasoning. This is the usual practice of all who expound tenet systems. Therefore, if others get angry when the upholders of the earlier tradition make statements to that end, they are simply making an exhibition of their own shortcomings. Conversely, when, in response to our refutation of diverging positions, the upholders of the teachings of later masters reply correctly with arguments based on scripture and reasoning, if we, the holders of the earlier tradition, react with anger, we too are at fault. For whatever is propounded by our own or other schools must be examined to see whether[p.199]The Wisdom Chapter Fletcher, Wulstan, and Helena Blankleder (Padmakara Translation Group), trans.

It is wrong to proceed simply on the basis of attachment to one’s own side.

Anumāna - Inference (Skt. anumāna; T. rjes dpag) is a way of knowing something indirectly, using logic and reasoning rather than direct experience. For example, if you see smoke rising from a distant mountain, you can infer that there is a fire there, even if you can't see the fire directly yourself. It's a key way to understand things that are hidden from our senses. It is used in the Buddhist tradition to gain insight into deeper levels of reality of self and phenomena.

Pratigha - A negative mental state of hostility, anger, or aversion. It is an aggressive attitude toward people or situations that one finds unpleasant, with the wish to cause them harm. It is considered one of the primary 'afflictions' that disturb the mind's peace. Skt प्रतिघ  Tib ཁོང་ཁྲོ་  Ch 瞋;恚

Bodhisattva - A person who seeks enlightenment for the sake of others. In Mahāyāna Buddhism, a bodhisattva is a compassionate being who is training on the path to buddhahood and aspires to eliminate the suffering of all beings and take all sentient beings to the state of enlightenment. The Mahāyāna sūtras including those on buddha-nature generally have bodhisattvas as the main audience or interlocutors for the Buddha's discourses. Skt बोधिसत्त्व  Tib བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ།  Ch 菩薩
