Orgyen Tobgyal Rinpoche says this text is classified as a 'sutra' text. Geshe Ngawang Dhargyé (external link in this article) says this is classified as a 'tantra' text: "Ashvagosha’s Fifty Verses is the most comprehensive summary of devoting yourself to your guru by means of action. Its scriptural sources are a wide range of tantric texts, including the Guhyasamaja, Kalachakra, Chakrasamvara, Vajradakini, and Vajrahridayalamkara tantras. The specific tantric sources for each verse are given in Lama Tsongkhapa’s Fulfillment of All Hopes, his commentary on this text." Could a scholar please clarify?--Sébastien (talk) 08:53, 27 October 2017 (CEST)
