[ Note significant variants between this version and mTshams brag. mTshams brag has a Sanskrit title too - a'rya kal pa sha padma ma' le sang kra ha; mTshams brag has a different homage - bcom ldan 'das dpal kun rig rnam par snang mdzad la phyag 'tshal lo/ (vol Wa: 123); mTshams brag has similar chapter titles but with some variants, eg refers to some chapters as skabs or bstan pa’i skabs, rather than le'u. Ch. 7 in mTshams brag has strings of seed syllables which Rig ’dzin rje omits, and it has a shorter chapter title. Similarly, Rig ’dzin rje omits a few seed syllables which mTshams brag gives in ch. 8, and there are variations in the mantras in ch. 9. mTshams brag has a variant title for ch. 38: “gtor” for our “sbyor”. At the end of the text, mTshams brag has the beginning of our ch. 41, then continues with much of our ch. 42, but it ends with a different title not corresponding either to our 41 or 42 (ngo tshar bstod pa’i le’u ste zhe gcig pa’o), page 152.4. A version of this text plus a long commentary exists in the Dun huang collection, studied by Kenneth Eastman. Approximate versions of the praises given on 192b, line 2/3ff, occur in various Phur pa tantras as well as other Dun huang texts. ]
