      Thanks for asking. The Brahmanical-Buddhist polemics on the possibility of the Buddhavacana often focuses on the possibility of yogipratyakṣa (or one of its synonyms). Brahmanical authors (esp. Mīmāṃsā ones) insist that one cannot "see" dharma. 1/2

      pratyakṣa is only indriyap. As a reductio ad absurdum, people like #VedāntaDeśika say that it would be as expecting smell to be able to grasp things other than smells. So, yes: 1. pratyakṣa cannot grasp non-indriya things and 2. each pramāṇa has a specific gocara. 2/3

      The issue of conceptuality could be beside the point, since Buddhist authors claim that the Buddha had a direct experience of dharma (so, no need to say that pratyakṣa can grasp concepts). Hope it is clear enough! 3/3

      Super clear! The world of smells can be used to think about vikalpa and language—in the Lankavatara it is used as an example to say you can have communication and even teaching (and so vikalpa) with just a sensory and non-linguistic medium—of course the point requires...

      Very interesting! I'm also curious about the reference. This comes up explicitly in both the Śūraṅgama and Avataṃsaka, but I somehow missed it in the Laṅkāvatāra.

      Thanks for mentioning. Please, if possible, add the relevant sentences from Śūraṅgama and Avataṃsaka.

      The "Twenty Five Sages" section of the Śūraṅgama Sūtra includes a few. Adding those first. The "Purifying Practice" section of the Avataṃsaka Sūtra and references to "doors to liberation" are closely related. Might take a bit longer. Both exist in Chinese and Eng. translation.

      This seems to be again something else, isn't it? Here the point is disidentifying with one's sensations, however agreeable, and understanding that they are not-oneself (an-ātman) and therefore ultimately nil (nir-ātman). Are you reading it otherwise?

      Might have missed the earlier context. Just noting a few additional branches stemming from the Vimalakīrti reference to receiving the Buddha's teachings olfactorily and Laṅkāvatāra reference to communication/teaching with a sensory, non-linguistic medium. Apologies if off topic.
