The Compendium of Dharanis (Tib. གཟུངས་འདུས།, Wyl. gzungs 'dus) is a collection of 249 dharani texts (Toh 846-1093) in the Dharani section of the Kangyur. They are short sutra or tantra texts used mainly for ritual purposes, mostly structured around a dharani formula in Sanskrit, its uses and the story of its origin.[1]
