The buddhakāya theory described in chapter 8 of the Abhisamayālaṃkāra has been interpreted as either a threefold or a fourfold embodiment system. However, Dol po pa insists that it is useless to argue concerning the number of buddhakāya; rather than deny a threefold or a fourfold system, he accepts both, depending on the context. In addition, he has commented on and adopted some views of the buddhakāya in esoteric Buddhism, which has no direct relationship with the Abhisamayālaṃkāra. Thus, Dol po pa would like to apply all aspects of the buddhakāya theories, including that of esoteric Buddhism, to his commentary on the Abhisamayālaṃkāra.
