PosBuNayDefProv	Definitive
PosBuNayDefProvNotes	Kano. K., Buddha-Nature and Emptiness, p. 315.
PosAllBuddha	Yes
PosAllBuddhaMoreNotes	Wangchuk, Tsering, The Uttaratantra in the Land of Snows p. 29.
PosWheelTurn	Third Turning
PosWheelTurnNotes	According to Wangchuk, Tsering, The Uttaratantra in the Land of Snows, p. 29. However, Kano suggests his view of RGV relates to both 2nd and 3rd turnings. "In his Byams pa dang 'grel ba'i chos kyi byung tshul, bCom-ldan-ral-gri asserts that the teaching of the RGV contradicts neither the Two Truths doctrine of Madhyamaka nor the Yogäcära doctrine of the Threefold Intrinsic Nature, while the other four treatises of Maitreya teach either one or the other of these two doctrines (but not both at the same time)." Kano. K., Buddha-Nature and Emptiness, p. 342.
PosYogaMadhya	Madhyamaka
PosZhenRang	Zhentong
PosZhenRangNotes	This assertion is applied retroactively since he predates the category. "bCom-ldan-ral-gri of sNar-thang monastery is, according to Taranätha, a forerunner of the gzhan stong tradition established by Dol-po-pa. bCom-ldan-ral-gri, in his RGV commentary, does not systematically teach the gzhan stong doctrine (and is not, of course, aware that he would later be considered a gzhan stong forerunner), but he does expound some fragmentary elements that possibly fink him to the gzhan stong position of Dol-po-pa". Kano. K., Buddha-Nature and Emptiness, p. 342.
PosAnalyticMedit	Meditative Tradition
PosAnalyticMeditNotes	The perhaps not explicitly fitting into this category, Kano states: "His understanding of Buddha-nature is compatible with that of the tradition of bTsan Kha-bo-che, which defines Buddha-nature as the “natural luminous mind,” and also in accordance with Dol-po-pa’s stance, which sees the Buddha-nature teaching being echoed in tantric literature." Kano. K., Buddha-Nature and Emptiness, p. 342.
PosEmptyLumin	Tathagatagarbha as Mind's Luminous Nature
PosEmptyLuminNotes	"In his commentary on RGV I.3, bCom-ldan-ral- gri defines Buddha-nature as “the natural luminous mind that is inseparable from dharmatâ,” and, glossing RGV 1.153, states: “the ultimate truth, which is unconditioned and primordially existent by itself, is the element (i.e. Buddha-nature).” Kano. K., Buddha-Nature and Emptiness, p. 342. (see also Ibid. p. 315.)
