Treasury of Valid Reasoning
Treasury of Valid Reasoning (Tib. ཚད་མ་རིགས་གཏེར་, Wyl. tshad ma rigs gter) is a classic work on logic and epistemology (Skt. pramana) by the great Sakya Pandita. It was held to be of such importance that it was translated into Sanskrit and used by contemporary Indian logicians.
