English	Trepo Drakar Tulku, Lozang Pelden Tendzin, from glorious Drepung, the great center of Dharma, who is renowned for his clear intelligence, has composed an exposition of the profound crucial points of Madhyamaka entitled A Pleasurable Discourse for Those of Clear Understanding (Blo gsal dga’ ba’i gtam). It is a lucid exposition of his own tradition and was sent to me as a refutation. When it arrived, not only was I not displeased to receive it, I was as thrilled as a peacock at the sound of summer thunder. When people have embraced the tradition through which they enter the door of the Dharma, they naturally object to whatever is said against it. Such is the good and noble practice of sons who follow in the footsteps of their fathers. This is quite different from what we see now in these evil times, when people belittle the tradition that has come down to them—like the deity on which their flower has fallen during an empowerment—and delight in following a tradition that is not their own. They try to imitate others but without success, and they shamelessly barter away their vital strength.

Madhyamaka - Along with Yogācāra, it is one of the two major philosophical schools of Mahāyāna Buddhism. Founded by Nāgārjuna around the second century CE, it is rooted in the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras, though its initial exposition was presented in Nāgārjuna's Mūlamadhyamakakārikā.

Ātman - Though it can simply be used as the expression "I" or "me", in Indian thought the notion of self refers to a permanent, unchanging entity, such as that which passes from life to life in the case of people, or the innate essence (svabhāva) of phenomena. Skt आत्मन्  Tib བདག་  Ch 我;灵魂

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
