Have the The Manifold Sayings of Dakpo been available in translation before?
Interesting, I hadn't realized that.they predate the later Tibetan phenomenon of the Mahāyānization of Mahāmudrā in the fifteenth-seventeenth centuries, when Tibetan Buddhist writers apologetically retrofitted Tibetan Mahāmudrā mysticism with the classical Indian contemplative categories of tranquility and insight meditation, named shinä – lhaktong or śamatha – vipaśyanā. Hence, a study of the Mahāmudrā passages in The Manifold Sayings is essential for discerning originality and innovation in Tibetan mysticism and for setting a hermeneutical beginning from which the Tibetan mystical terminology can be researched through etymology and philology. (pg 21)
Overall, it looks like a very solid addition to our understanding of Mahāmudrā in the Kagyu tradition.
