A list of all pages that have property "Translatorintro" with value "Among the eight ancillary path cycles, ''The Path Cycle of the Mudra'' presents the most detailed and explicit explanation of mudra practice. While it is clear the text is written for practice with a consort, or karma mudra, Amezhap asserts that according to how it is presented in ''The Explanation of the Path with Its Result for Disciples'', there are two ways this text has been explained: for practice with an actual mudra and with a gnosis mudra, or a visualized consort. In ''The Fortunate Right-Turning White Conch'', chapter 17, Kongtrul comments that even if one is to rely on an actual mudra, training with a gnosis mudra is a necessary preparation. One of the more interesting features of ''The Path Cycle of the Mudra'' is the detailed description of how one progresses on the bodhisattva stages to buddhahood through the dissolution of the vāyus that are in “cities”—that is, nāḍī locations that correspond to the thirty-two countries, the renowned pilgrimage sites on the Indian continent. The text also provides two accounts of the three kāyas: the standard seven limbs of the three kāyas given in the other seven texts belonging to the eight ancillary path cycles and a presentation of the five limbs of three kāyas unique to Indrabhūti II’s ''Accomplishing Gnosis.'' The text concludes with the account of the lineage, in which three Indrabhūtis are identified, and it is stated that there is both a long and a short lineage for this teaching. In ''Effortless Accomplishment of the Two Benefits'', Amezhap states that Indrabhūti II is the author of this instruction.".
