“Parting-the-Clouds” Compilation on the Dharma-Realm Contemplation by 道通 (Dàotōng, 述)

About the work

This 1-fascicle text by 道通 Dàotōng is a compact treatise on the [[KR6e0101|Fǎ jiè guānmén 法界觀門]] tradition, framed as pī yún 披雲 (“parting the clouds” — i.e. clarifying the obscured doctrinal substance). The text supplements Dàotōng’s other works ([[KR6e0123|Tūn hǎi jí]], [[KR6e0132|Pán jié]]) with a focused treatment of the foundational Huáyán contemplative-doctrinal apparatus.
