| English | “If valid cognition is not valid cognition, Isn’t what is validated by it delusive? In true reality, the emptiness of entities Is therefore unjustified.” [138]1784In all Tibetan translations of this verse, the last two lines read as follows: de nyid du ni stong pa nyid In true reality, meditation on emptiness sgom pa de phyir mi ’thad ’gyur Is therefore unjustified. In Sanskrit, this would be tattvataḥ śūnyatā tasmād bhāvanā nopapadyate. However, what these lines actually say is tattvataḥ śūnyatā tasmād bhāvānāṃ nopapadyate, which is confirmed by all Indian commentaries and their Tibetan translations. Thus, the Tibetan should read: de nyid du ni dngos rnams kyi/ stong nyid de phyir mi ’thad ’gyur. Pawo Rinpoche seems to comment on both possibilities, with an unusual gloss of de nyid du ni. Except for Bu ston, who explicitly refers to both versions, all other Tibetan commentators comment on the first version only, which seems to result from a certain emphasis on the practical application of one’s understanding of emptiness in meditation. |
