Texts by and about the great Indian master Aśvaghoṣa (Tib. rta dbyangs):

Samaya

This version of Aśvaghoṣa’s text outlining the fourteen root downfalls of the Vajrayāna differs from the version in the Tengyur; in addition to some minor variations, it contains additional lines to facilitate the confession of all fourteen forms of transgression.

This short text, which explains the fourteen root downfalls of the Vajrayāna, became an important source for later commentaries on the samaya commitments.
