Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāGaganapariśuddhi (गगनपरिशुद्धि) is the name of a “Dharma-seal” (dharmamudrā), according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly as The Lord said: “Śāriputra, the Tathāgata Ekaratnavyūha, seating in the lion’s throne thus, explained the dharma-seal called Gaganapariśuddhi to these Bodhisattvas, which has thirty-two aspects of entrance. What is this Dharma-seal (dharmamudrā) called Gaganapariśuddhi which has thirty-two aspects of entrance? [...] In this way, Śāriputra, the Tathāgata Ekaratnavyūha elucidated the Dharma-seal called Gaganapariśuddhi to the Bodhisattvas, which has thirty-two aspects of entrance. Having heard that, innumerable Bodhisattvas attained the mastery of all dharmas and tolerance (kṣānti) in pure consciousness obtained by supernormal knowledge (abhijñā)”
