Nelug Dzö


' Nelug Dzö' (Tibetan: གནས་ལུགས་མཛོདWylie: gnas lugs mdzod) is a poetic vignette written in Classical Tibetan and one of the Seven Treasuries of Longchenpa. Longchenpa wrote 'Desum Nyingpo' (Wylie: sde gsum snying po), a prose autocommentary to this work. Dowman (2006: p.xxiii) considers it a "magical psychotropic poem".

Sanskrit title in IAST: Tathātva-ratna-koṣa-nāma

Importantly, the Tibetan Wylie "gnas lugs" is the analogue of the Sanskrit IAST "Tathātva". The online dictionary of the Tibetan and Himalayan Library (refer: http://www.thlib.org/) identifies "Tathātva" (which is a Sanskrit contraction or compound of "Tathātā" and "Tattva") as synonymous with Tathātā and Dharmatā.

Rigpa Sheda (August 2009) provide the English text outline following Barron, et al. (1998) from whom the Tibetan was sourced as follows:

Klein (2002: p. 353) provides a suite of English glosses for 'lhun grub' thus:

"The term lhun grub can be rendered as spontaneous presence, spontaneous occurrence, spontaneous accomplishment, spontaneous performance, spontaneous complete perfection, or spontaneity."
