प्रतीत्यसमुत्पादहृदयकारिका (Pratītyasamutpādahṛdayakārikā); chin. 因緣心論頌
Seven verses summarising the twelve links of dependent origination by grouping them into afflictions, actions and suffering, and concluding that there is no being who transmigrates: only empty factors arising from empty factors, like one flame lighting another.
