རྒན་པ་བཞི།



The idea of rgan pa bzhi can be found, for example, in the Vimalaprabhā. The corresponding Sanskrit terms have been recorded in Negi’s Tibetan-Sanskrit dictionary (from the Vimalaprabhā):
1. ye shes kyis rgan pajñānavṛddha
2. dka’ thub kyis rgan patapovṛddha
3. thos pas rgan paśrutavṛddha
4. nor gyis rgan padhanavṛddha
An explanation can be found in Mi-pham’s Dus ’khor nang le’u’i ’grel pa (MS, vol. 21/zha, pp. 290.5–291.6).
