|Note=The translation of the title of the ''Saṃdhinirmocanasūtra'' is the object of several discussions among scholars regarding the meaning of the Sanskrit words ''saṃdhi'' and ''nirmocana'' following Lamotte’s first complete translation of the text. Among the various translations into English of this Sanskrit compound, I opted for simplicity and translated the Sanskrit ''saṃdhinirmocanasūtra'' with “The Sūtra Unraveling the Intent,” which I believe renders accurately the meaning and structure of the text. Various interlocutors indeed ask the Buddha repeatedly to explain difficult points in order to clarify the purpose of his seemingly contradictory or complex doctrines on the nature of reality. On this point, see Lamotte 1935, p. 12ff., Ware 1937, Edgerton 1937, Edgerton 1953, p. 558, and later Keenan 1980, p. 126, Powers 1991a, and Powers 1993b, p. 28ff.

This is the RYI Dictionary content as presented on the site http://rywiki.tsadra.org/, which is being changed fundamentally and will become hard to use within the GoldenDict application. If you are using GoldenDict, please either download and import the rydic2003 file from DigitalTibetan (WayBack Machine version as the site was shut down in November 2021).

Or go directly to http://rywiki.tsadra.org/ for more upcoming features.
