the panchen lama chökyi gyaltsen, himself was influenced by kagyu teachings, and wished to imitate great siddhas like milarepa and sabaripa. he names various mahamudra and dzogchen lineages in his text, and comes to the conclusion that "their definitive meanings are all seen to come to the same intended point." chökyi gyaltsen also sides with the kagyu school against sakya, arguing that there is a sutra level of mahamudra. however, in his account, sutra mahamudra is particularly associated with a gradual path and his presentation of insight practice ("vipasyana") is uniquely gelug.
