དགེ་ལྡན་, 6. Clearly printed in both copies, not དགའ་ལྡན་. This name, ‘the virtuous,’ seems to refer to the Gelukpa sect, though the monastery which is here meant is usually called དགའ་ལྡན་. The relation between the two terms is not quite clear. Grünwedel, in his ‘Mythologie des Buddhismus,’ etc., p. 72, speaks of ‘das Kloster dGa-ldan oder dGe-ldan.’ Günther Schulemann in ‘Die Geschichte der Dalailamas,’ p. 65, speaks of the ‘Schule, die zuerst dGa-ldan-pa, dann aber dGe-ldan-pa oder dGe-lugs-pa, ‘die Tugendsekte’, genannt wurde.’ Modern Tibetans seem to know only the name དགའ་ལྡན་ for the famous monastery. དགྲ་ཉོན་མོངས་, 37. This is an apposition. The enemies, the sins; the enemies who are the sins; ‘these enemies of sins’ as in ‘these rascals of boys.’ See ཉོན་མོངས་. མགུར་མ་, title. Its hon. form is གསུང་མགུར་. As a single word the affix མ་ is required, which may disappear in compounds. Bell gives as meaning of མགུར་མ་ ‘religious song,’ Henderson ‘hymn.’ As J. points out, the profane song is གླུ་ and the religious song མགུར་མ་. A synonym for གླུ་ is གཞེས་ (not in the three Dicts. but in Bell and Henderson s.v. song). S. Ch. D.’s གླུ་གཞེས་ ‘sportive song’ is not supported by the data in J. or Desg., nor by my informants. They take the second part of this compound as a misprint for གཞེས་ and hold that གླུ་གཞེས་ is a double-form with the meaning of either of its parts: song. The word མགུར་མ་ has one honorific form, གསུང་མགུར་. The words གླུ་ and གཞེས་ have each various hon. forms: གསུང་གཞེས (recorded in Bell) and གསུང་གླུ་. Desg. has a གསུང་མགུར་, pleasant song, but my oral information does not support this special meaning. Note the difference between J. སྐྱིད་གླུ་ (s.v. སྐྱིད་), ‘song of joy,’ and Desg. id. s.v. གླུ་ ‘chant érotique.’ In Redslob’s translation of the Psalms into classical Tibetan, the word གསུང་མགུར་ is used for psalm.
