:sngags kyi bslung mas bsrungs shig: :man ngag rdzogs pa chen po gsang [ the line ends here; however, at this point, we find a cross (above the line) beneath which there are a number of small horizontal lines and then a single syll, apparently "mngag/" (perhaps for, “manga”), written in dbu med, under the end of the line. The final words of the text thus appear to end abruptly.This might indicate that there could be a further (or even more than one) missing folio. However, it is unlikely that more than one further folio follows. mTshams brag (Na: 777) completes the text after the above colophon ending with, “rdzogs so”, adding only, “sarba manga lam.// gnyis zhus//”. ]
