Stephen,

Remarkable in the sense that I continue to be amazed with and inspired
by the text of the Thanbyin.tiikaa which I recently acquired from
Burma.  I suppose such comments as the one on "vaasanaa" can be easily
found in the Yogacara texts but they are hard to find in the Pali
texts. I assume you are familiar with the Yogacara texts which I
hardly know anything about. So, does the Thanbyin comment resonate
with a comparable Yogacara comment on the same term?

Best wishes,
Jim
