10. Integration of the Three Vows
Aware of the dynamic momentum formed by these diverse vehicles and the particular ways in which their philosophical views are associated with the holding of commitments or vows, rNying-ma authors have sought to integrate and present them as a unified blueprint for the practitioner. Perhaps the best known work of this type is mNga’-ris Ascertainment of the Three Vows (sDom-gsum rnam-nges).
