Abhisamayālaṃkāra; Dol po pa; Haribhadra; gNod ʼjoms
摘要
Dol po pa’s commentary on the Abhisamayālaṃkāra does not adopt Haribhadra’s interpretation; rather, it often includes quotations from the gNod ’joms (*Ārya-śatasāhasrikāpañcaviṃśatisāhasrikâṣṭādaśasāhasrikāprajñāpāramitā-bṛhaṭṭīkā, attributed variously to Vasubandhu or Daṃṣṭrāsena). However, these quotations are not a commentary on the treatise. Dol po pa criticizes Haribhadra in his commentary for the following reasons. (1) Dol po pa trusts the works of scholars belonging to the Great Madhyamaka, such as Vasubandhu, because they do not contradict the “Maitreya Chapter” in the “Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras.” (2) Dol po pa seems to have attempted to integrate the three gateways and eleven discourses system (sgo gsum rnam grangs bcu gcig) with the eight abhisamaya system. (3) Haribhadra criticizes Vasubandhu, indicating that he interprets the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras from a mind-only perspective. However, Dol po pa considers Vasubandhu to be a Great Madhyamaka scholar, not just a mind-only one. Therefore, Dol po pa opposes Haribhadra’s interpretation.
In short, Dol po pa emphasizes the “Maitreya Chapter,” which could have been a source of his Other-emptiness theory, and this led to Dol po pa’s emphasis of the gNod ’joms as well as his opposition to Haribhadra’s interpretation.
