Zusammenfassung:"This text provides an introduction to and a translation of an inscription engraved on black slates at Punakha rDzong chung. The inscription purports to contain a legal code of Zhabs-drung Ngag-dbang rnam-rgyal, the founder of the Bhutanese State. The main intention of the text is to equate the organization of the newly established 'Brug-pa state to the organization ofthe Tibetan imperial state of Srong-btsan sgam-po, thereby legitimizing andsanctifying the Zhabs-drungþs rule in Bhutan. For this purpose, the inscription takes as its point of reference the Section on Law and State, a chapter on Tibetan imperial law and administration found in the mid 16th century text mKhas pa'i dga' ston by dPa'-bo gTsug-lag phreng-ba (1504-1566)."--Back cover
