At that time, the eaves and door frames are decorated with five colors. The scripture says "surrounded," so surrounding it in this way is good. The reason for building the eleven-vajra mesh is that, in the Dharma Meaning, it says: The gatehouse is the house of protection, from the darkness of ignorance above, in order to open the place of seeing wisdom, therefore, the eleven-vajra mesh is built. Its size is also stated in the Secret Perfection: One small part of the eleven vajras. As it says, the supporting points of the vajras at both the upper and lower ends are slightly contracted inward from the beams, and the height of the vajra in between should be one part each. Lhaje Mangkarwa and others consider this to be the same meaning as the felt vajra of a horse's leg, and then determine the number of eleven vajras, etc., which I do not think is reasonable. Because in the Secret Perfection Mahayogi's Stages of Practice by Master Padmasambhava, it says: The four gatehouses are decorated in dark blue, cool and pleasant, and the eleven vajras above make the sky clear. This contradicts the above statement. Regarding the installation location of the door leaves, some think they should be installed inside the door frame, some think they should be installed at the edge of the frame, and some think they should be installed on both the inside and outside. Among these three methods, I think that installing them inside the door frame is the intention of Je Tsongkhapa, and it is the best. If so, Buton Rinpoche said in his Condensed Commentary: Inside all the doors, the guardians should be placed. If this is the case, then it is said that door leaves also need to be installed outside the door frame, would this be a conflict? There is no conflict, even if there is a door outside the guardian, it is not necessarily necessary to have door leaves. If it is absolutely necessary, then Master Tshultrim Kyang also said that the stable should also be like the first door. Moreover, in the Dharma Meaning, it also says: Doors have upper and lower parts, the lower door has a gatehouse, and the upper part is stairs and a cow's back, etc., which should be built in a beautiful way. Since the cow's back is also called a door, it would be too much if door leaves also need to be installed on stables and cow's backs. Sixth, the stable is: In the Vajra Mirror, it says: By walking the eight paths in order, perfecting the qualities of the fruition, therefore the stable shows the sixteen causes and effects. Therefore, the sign of practicing and realizing the eight vehicles of liberation is the horse of the cause.

台阶，以及作为八乘教派功德圆满之象征的八个果位台阶，总共十六个。如是，《幻化差别教》中说：八乘之定出，或因果之内外，显现为八个阶梯。这是关于因之台阶的阐述。其后文中说：为了那圆满的成就之边际，有八种功德，故有马足、莲花框架、扎拉网、悬垂饰品、串珠悬垂、夏布和琼鸟头饰依次排列。这是关于果之台阶的阐述。如是二者中，首先是因之台阶，广释和支分，以及《金刚秘密心髓续》等经部，词义一致地这样说：空愿无相光明入，因此智慧四门现，彼处具足八行道，转为八个台阶。以及《光明次第》中说：具备四门环绕的台阶，为了安住处道路的行进。如此。对此，古代的上师们大多说，因为门比门房和走廊稍微高一些，所以楼梯从内有四个，从外有四个，总共八个。杰色敦钦波说：在四个方向，从骑乘台阶的地方到进入门之间，各有两级楼梯，总共八个。这两种说法都不合理，因为在禅房的楼梯上，从内外设置楼梯入口非常不方便，而且如果每个方向有两级楼梯，总共构成八个台阶，那么也与装饰的台阶相似。还有，如果认为后一种说法是《解释·日狮子》中每扇门都有两级楼梯的意图，那是不对的，因为《解释》的意图是指每扇门都有内外两级楼梯。那么是什么呢？是以前的大学者们说，楼梯从外有四个，从内有四个，其含义是在门扇和门框的交界处设置外部的四个楼梯，在门框和走廊的交界处设置内部的四个楼梯。这里后来的学者们说，新派的绒巴曲贡和旧派的若协饶沃等认为，因为门外有骑乘台阶的方式，所以认为是台阶，这是非常错误的。布顿和

And, as a sign of the perfection of the eight qualities of the eight vehicles' tenets, there are eight fruition steps, making sixteen in total. Thus, in the *Detailed Display of Illusion*, it says: "The definite emergence of the eight vehicles, or through the parts of cause and effect, inner and outer, appears as eight steps." This explains the causal steps. Further in that text, it says: "For the sake of the complete culmination of that, there are eight qualities, hence horse feet, lotus frames, *zara* nets, hanging ornaments, pendant clusters, *sharbu*, and *khyung* head decorations are arranged in order." This explains the resultant steps. Thus, of the two, the first, the causal steps, is found in the expanded and detailed, and the *Vajra Secret Essence Tantra* and other tantras, which say with one voice: "Emptiness, aspiration, signlessness, and luminosity enter. Therefore, the four wisdom doors arise. There, it possesses eight paths to travel, and transforms into eight steps." And in the *Light Gradations*, it says: "With steps possessing four door frames, for the sake of traversing the path of the abode." Thus. Regarding this, most of the earlier lamas said that because the door is slightly higher than the gatehouse and the corridor, there are four steps from the inside and four from the outside, making eight in total. Je Seton Chenpo said that in the four directions, from the place of mounting the steps to entering the door, there are two steps each, making eight in total. Both of these are unreasonable, because it is very inconvenient to arrange the entrance to the stairs from the inside and outside on the meditation stairs, and if there are two steps in each direction, making a total of eight steps, then it is similar to the decorative steps as well. Also, if one thinks that the latter system is the intention of the *Commentary: Sun Lion* that there are two steps for each door, that is not correct, because the intention of the *Commentary* is that each door has two steps, inner and outer. So what is it? It is that the great scholars and accomplished ones of the past said that the meaning of the stairs being four from the outside and four from the inside is that the outer four stairs are installed at the junction of the door leaf and the door frame, and the inner four stairs are installed at the junction of the door frame and the corridor. Here, later scholars say that Rongpa Chögon of the New School and Rok Sherab Ö of the Nyingma School, etc., think that because there is a way of mounting the steps outside the door, it is very wrong to consider it as steps.

དག་ཚང་译师等阻止并称赞说，有些大学者说，因为是骑马台阶的地方，所以“རྟ་བབས”这个词没有进入梵语的词义。虽然这样说，但在书写的时候，如果有人认为这个骑马台阶就是楼梯，那肯定是错误的。其他没有过失，因为在梵语中，“ཏྭ་ར་ཎ་”的意思是明显悬挂，所以说不具备悬挂在楼梯上的意思，这确实没错。但在其他方面，也有不含烦恼的意思，因此成为了它的手印。另一种说法是，“ཏུ་རིང་ཏ་གམ་མ་ཎ་”是对马做的，进入宫殿时，这些是骑马台阶的台子，所以才这样称呼，这是以前的大译师们说的。而且《ཕྱོགས་བཅུ་མུན་སེལ་》中也说，“ཏྭ་ར་ཎ་”的声音是虚空的装饰，是门卫，是骑马台阶的台子，也指楼梯，因此没有不符合梵语的过失。没有这个过失，之前的障碍也消除了。还有，在《ཆོས་དོན་》中说，八个阶梯是八正道，八乘和八解脱，这是楼梯内外共同的意义象征。门阶、骑马台阶这四个是，三个是三界，四个是具有莲花标志的八正道。这也说明了内外每个楼梯都有四个层次的意义象征。༈。二是果的骑马台阶，门外侧的四个柱子末端到达的地方，立起内外四个柱子。那么，这个包含柱基的柱子高度做成七个小部分，在《ཕྲེང་བ་》中说，骑马台阶的柱子要突出到建造的线上，是七个小部分。这个说法是不合理的，因为骑马台阶的柱子比殿堂稍微长一点，每个柱子都位于正方形的台子上，因为位于平地上，所以看起来像是与台子相连。因此，应该将这些画在台子的外侧。如果说因为禁止柱子做成七个小部分，所以是不合理的，那么《ཕྲེང་བ་》的意图不是这样的。为什么呢？因为《ཕྲེང་བ་》之前的说法是，骑马台阶的柱子必须突出到建造的线上，柱子的高度需要七个小部分，这是

Tagtsang Lotsawa and others praised the prohibition, saying that some scholars said that because it is the place for the horse-landing platform, the word "རྟ་བབས" does not enter the meaning of the Sanskrit word. Although they said that, if someone thinks that this horse-landing platform is a staircase when writing, it is definitely wrong. There is no other fault, because in Sanskrit, "ཏྭ་ར་ཎ་" means obviously hanging, so it is true that it does not have the meaning of hanging on the stairs. But in other aspects, it also means without defilements, so it has become its mudra. Another saying is that "ཏུ་རིང་ཏ་གམ་མ་ཎ་" is done to the horse. When entering the palace, these are the platforms for the horse-landing platform, so they are called that way, which is what the great translators of the past said. Moreover, in 《ཕྱོགས་བཅུ་མུན་སེལ་》, it is also said that the sound of "ཏྭ་ར་ཎ་" is the decoration of the void, the gatekeeper, the platform of the horse-landing platform, and also refers to the stairs, so there is no fault that does not conform to Sanskrit. Without this fault, the previous obstacles are also eliminated. Also, in 《ཆོས་དོན་》, it is said that the eight steps are the Eightfold Path, the eight vehicles, and the eight liberations, which is a common symbolic meaning of the inner and outer stairs. The four of the door step and the horse-landing platform are, three are the three realms, and four are the Eightfold Path with lotus marks. This also explains that each of the inner and outer stairs has a symbolic meaning of four levels. ༈. The second is the horse-landing platform of the fruit. The four pillar ends on the outer corner of the door side reach, and the four inner and outer pillars are erected. So, this pillar height including the pillar base is made into seven small parts. In 《ཕྲེང་བ་》, it is said that the pillars of the horse-landing platform should protrude to the construction line and are seven small parts. This statement is unreasonable, because the pillars of the horse-landing platform are slightly longer than the palace, and each pillar is located on a square platform. Because it is located on flat ground, it looks like it is connected to the platform. Therefore, these should be painted on the outside of the platform. If it is said that it is unreasonable because it is forbidden to make the pillars into seven small parts, then the intention of 《ཕྲེང་བ་》 is not like this. Why? Because the previous statement of 《ཕྲེང་བ་》 is that the pillars of the horse-landing platform must protrude to the construction line, and the height of the pillars needs seven small parts, which is

想到如果不加上那两个小部分，就不够。当念珠匠反驳这个观点时，即使需要七个小部分的柱子，当竖起画中的五个小部分的柱子时，因为每一个都位于带有宝瓶的方形台座的两个小部分上。柱基与墙裙的高度相同，从远处看，这五个小部分的柱子看起来像是立在墙裙上一样连接在一起，所以在绘画时不需要画柱基。如果画了，那么马道的两个内柱的插入位置也比宫殿多两个小部分，因此必须插入稍微长一点的地方。如果在墙壁的线上突出，那么在竖立时也会产生必须插入接触墙壁的位置的疑问。所以这样的做法不好。因此，应该在台座的外表面上绘制这些。这是它的意思。这里，一些学者认为柱子比宫殿稍微长一点的意思是指柱子的高度，从而使宫殿非常低矮。另一些人则认为柱基被计算在柱子高度的五个小部分之内，等等，这些都是不合理的。即使那样，也无法从“因为它位于方形台座上”这句话中推导出来。如果有人说，这里不应该做成带有宝瓶的两个小部分，那么，方形柱基也必须代表宝瓶。正如念珠中所说，马道的柱子位于方形台座和宝瓶上。并且，楞伽贤善说：‘从台座宝瓶生，马道柱正直立。’这就是原因。在四个柱子上，有两种情况，即有或没有支撑马道的栋梁。这里显示了有栋梁的一面。正如《法义》中所说：‘门房外四角，四柱之栋梁，八八抬起马道基，柱基柱弓各适宜。’这就是原因。这个栋梁的高度是一个小部分。正如《线度量》中所说：‘栋梁与马道八分同。’这就是原因。后栋梁的两个内端通过在门边的墙壁外侧挖洞并插入，分成两段，因此变成了五个栋梁。
