Translation of colophon

 A teaching of the great Bon master, the heart nectar of Phung bon mgo dmar, the nang nor (?) Red Razor tantra for repulsion; and the tantra of the Blazing Heap of Black Razor s (sPu gri nag phung ’bar), like a sharp arrow, presented to Bla chen Dran pa nam mkha’
and the treasure guardians (kha btsan) of the mDo khams area. In future, at the end of time, may we meet those who have good karmic qualities. This is a treasure that was rediscovered from the mountain rMa gnyan bon ra by sprul sku Kyu ra. Blessings. This text is written by me, Phun tshogs don ’grub. May the enemies of the Buddha’s teachings be wiped out, and then may I, the Bonpo gYu lo pa from Kham, be informed.

Remarks

Rediscovered by spul sku Kyu ra (12C) on mountain rMa chen spom ra, and copied by Phun tshogs don grub (? probably from Tsho in Dolpo). gYu lo pa seems to be another name used by the scribe. Also, the trause from mDo kham, which is belong to the khams gter tradition, the beside tradition of Bon treasuer.
