The Sanskrit word paryāya regularly has the sense of “method,” “procedure,” and “approach,” but here it means simply “Dharma teaching,” “Dharma discourse,” or, more literally, “approach to the Dharma.” The Chinese 法門 fa men (lit. “door to the Dharma”) conveys the sense of “access/approach” and, by extension, “teaching.” The Tibetan rnam grangs can be misread as having something to do with “enumeration.”
