Translation of colophon This text was divided into three parts by great master Dran pa nam mkha’, then hidden in three different places. Therefore, this is arranged in two texts: one was rediscovered by Kyu ra rnal ’byor on the mountain rMa gnyan bom ra, and other was rediscovered by Khyung rgod rtsal in Zang zang lha brag. Apart from the long life practice and wrathful tantra in two parts, there are the other two that are similar. It was transmitted from generation to generation, and now I, the monk of the ’Bru family Phun tshogs grags pa, am disseminating it.
Remarks

Based on treasure texts discovered by Kyur ra rnal ’byor (12th century) and Khyung rgod rtsal (b. 1175), then both are composed together by Phun tshogs grags pan.
