| Wylie | rten 'brel |
| Wylie Definition | = rten cing 'brel ba[r 'byung ba]. "Emerging through containment-connection." Usually tr. as interdependent origination, etc. "Arising through a situation of connectedness and dependence." Each 'thing' so produced is connected with the 'others' to the point of containing them. Therefore, concepts of linear causation do not apply. Each is a necessary (but atemporal) result (pratItya) of all the others as a totality... not one following from the other. The totality is, though, void. 'Supporting links' in Germano in JIABS 17 no. 2 (1994) 259. Gyatso, Apparitions 179. Colloquial usages approach the meaning of 'coincidence,' 'circumstances,' also, 'omen,' a 'connection' with a particular teaching or teacher. It may also be used in the sense of 'provisions' (see under gal te). |
