Vortrag
To what extent can we reliably understand the origins of the gter ma tradition from its own internal evidence, from narratives contained within gter ma texts themselves? If these might be doubtful, are any viable external sources of evidence available? I will begin this talk by re-assessing the value of O rgyan gling pa’s rGyal po bka'i thang yig as a source for understanding the origins of gter ma in Tibet, after which I will introduce alternative historical approaches and sources that might yield alternative understandings.
