Except, in the parts of Dzog chen that I will
be posting shortly on (as soon as I find the
stuff I need since the questions asked go
beyond what I can answer on just memory)
that may be the location within the Kanjur
for where the Stanzas of Dyzan may be
derived (I don't think it is a book but
a synopsis of several Kanjur texts that
Central Asian and Bon groups have
collated), some Buddhas create
Buddha-fields, and so, not all
karmic manifestation is a fall -
and is not such in Dzog chen.
