monastic assembly

This temple usually houses the monastic assembly of Haa.

But which two monastic assemblies are paired?

As understood by these translators, 'Sanghāta' in the title refers to a pair of monastic assemblies.

It also has a powerful but separate central monastic assembly in the Tibetan model, which has often preferred to keep the country isolated and its Buddhist religion in the dominant position.

During the Sanghāta, groups are assembling right up to the final pages of the sutra, but most of those who gather are not identified even as Buddhists, much less monastic assemblies.

However, in most (but not all) of the editions of the Tibetan canon, or bka' 'gyur (kagyur), the title of the text is simply rendered as 'Zung,' omitting the reference to monastic assembly or Sangha.
