Dreyfus has said that the Bodhicaryavatara is not part of the list of thirteen,[1] and seems to count Dharmakirti's Pramanavarttika in its place. Yet, although recent editions of the thirteen texts actually include no less than eighteen root texts, the Pramanavarttika is not among them and Khenpo Shenga did not write a commentary to it. However, the Pramanavarttika is included in the list of eighteen major texts which form the basis of the curriculum in the Sakya school--the so-called "eighteen texts of great renown" (gzhung grags chen bco brgyad). This list consists of the thirteen great texts plus the following:

  1. Compendium of Valid Cognition by Dignaga
  2. Pramanavarttika by Dharmakirti
  3. Ascertainment of Valid Cognition by Dharmakirti
  4. Treasury of Valid Reasoning by Sakya Pandita
  5. Clear Differentiation of the Three Sets of Vows (sdom gsum rab dbye) by Sakya Pandita
