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.

མཚུངས་ལྡན་རྣམ་པ་ལྔ
the five parallels [RY]

Discussion

five concurrences. The five ways in which mental factors are combined and associated with mind. The five are support, object, focus, time, and substance.

The Sanskrit word prayukta means yoked or harnessed. The Tibetan actually means five ways of "having comparison," and indicates that mind and its concurrent mental factors are concurrent because they have a comparable support, etc. The Tibetan Treasury Auto-Commentary says, "Because they are possessed equally, they are possessed comparably."

Although RY suggests the five parallels, if one is going to translate ldan min du 'byed as "non-concurrent formation," one really must then translate mtshung ldan rnam pa lnga as five concurrences for consistency's sake. DKC
