'''Volume 03,''' text 023 - [[sgrub thabs rin 'byung las khol du phyungs pa dzam dkar lha lnga'i sgrub thabs rjes gnang dang bcas]] - Author discrepancy: [[Ringu Tulku]]. [[Contents of the gdams ngag mdzod from Ringu Tulku|Contents of the gdams ngag mdzod]], 1999. does not have an author listed for this text- [[Dan Martin]]. [[A Catalog of the Gdams-ngag Mdzod]], 1993. lists Lodro Thaye as the author (probably taken from the 'jam mgon gsung sdeb in the dkar chag), and Chokyi Nyima's report says the author is Taranatha, and the text was 'extracted' from his collection, sgrub thabs rin 'byung. | |||

'''Volume 01,''' text 003 - [[zab don pad tshal 'byed pa'i nyi 'od]] - Is the rje bla ma pad+ma 'od gsal mdo sngags gling pa mentioned in the colophon of this text the same as [[http://tbrc.org/link?RID=P2715]] TBRC P2715? The colophon reads: 'di'ang gdod ma'i mgon po bde ba chen po dang zhal mi gnyis pa rje bla ma pad+ma 'od gsal mdo sngags gling pa'i zhal snga nas rtsa ba'i lung dang gnad don bkrol ba'i ljags bshad rjes gnang dang bcas pa stsal nas gdams mdzod du 'khod par gyis shig pa'i bka' lung spyi bor phebs par brten/_ris med kyi rnal 'byor spyod pa blo gros mtha' yas pa'i sdes bla ma'i zhal lung mdor bsdus te bkod pa dge legs 'phel//_// | |||

'''Volume 01,''' text 013 - [[slob dpon dga' rab rdo rje nas brgyud pa'i rdzogs pa chen po sems sde'i pra khrid kyi man ngag]] - The colophon line: de'i rgya bskyor dga' rab rdo rje nyid kyis mdzad pa'i nyams sgron dang / makes me thing that this [[dga' rab rdo rje]] may be the one from the 19th century that's listed at TBRC, who authored the text rdzogs pa chen po bsam gtan nyams kyi sgron me [http://tbrc.org/link?RID=P8334]- which would also make the nam mkha rdo rje we have this text's author linked to at TBRC incorrect. However, the fact that [['jam dpal bshes gnyen]] is listed right after dga' rab rdo rje here makes me think it's the lineage founder Prahevajra. Any ideas on this? | |||
'''Volume 01,''' text 014 - [[rdzogs pa chen po'i klong sde'i rgyud lung gi rtsa ba gces par btus pa rnams]] - The first text in this work appears to have been written down by [[slob dpon dga' rab rdo rje]], which is clearly not the same person as Prahevajra here. This might help to resolve the issue with text 013 in this volume? | |||

Check out Shamar's website for a history of the original hierarchy set down during dbang phyug rdo rje's time [http://www.karmapa-issue.org/politics/heart_sons.htm] I need another source on this though.

The author that matches this name on TBRC's website [http://tbrc.org/link?RID=P182] is a kadampa and a gandenpa, which makes me think the lcan skya rol pa'i rdo rje who wrote this is a different person?

Due to it being an empowerment manual, I could not find anything to correspond to these entries within the text. | |||

'''Volume 05,''' text 001 - [[gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i gzhung rdo rje'i tshig rkang]] - Actual texts included within this should be checked, along with author information. Karchag information and authorship is unclear. | |||
'''Volume 05,''' text 002 - [[gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i gzhung rdo rje'i tshig rkang gi 'grel pa]] - Judging from the colophon, it seems like this text was written down by grags pa rgyal mtshan (son of Sa chen kun dga' snying po), so he should be included in the catalog data somewhere. Also, it seems like the kun khyab rab dga'i snying should not be put down as the author's name here (though it is intended as a description of the author). The line grags pas .... mdzad also makes me think that this text was actually written down by grags pa rgyal mtshan. Any ideas on this? | |||

The catalog data currently lists both of them as authors for this text. Any thoughts on this? | ||

It seems like the author should be changed to stag lung pa here.(it's currently listed as phag mo gru pa). | |||

In general, use the Notes area in the Metadata for each Tibetan text to record problems and issues for further research. Use this page to record especially complicated issues we need to return to and research.
- This citation does not match what we have, what to do? - The Torch of Certainty (phyag chen sngon 'gro bzhi sbyor dang dngos gzhi'i khrid rim mdor bsdus nges don sgron me) by Jamgon Kongtrul. The Treasury of Precious Instructions of Tibetan Buddhism, Volume 8, pages 3-124. Translated into English by Judith Hanson (Boulder: Shambhala, 1977).
Questions for Ngawang Zangpo
Volume 04, text 009 - blo sbyong brgyud pa'i gsol 'debs dad pa'i gdung sel - Chökyi Nyima suggested that Ngawang Zangpo may have translated this.
Volume 04, text 010 - blo sbyong smon lam byang sems rgya mtsho'i 'jug ngogs - Chökyi Nyima suggested that Ngawang Zangpo may have translated this.
Volume 11, text 002 - ye shes mkha' 'gro ni gu las brgyud pa'i zab lam gser chos lnga'i sngon rjes ngag 'don rdo rje'i tshig rkang byin rlabs 'od 'bar - Is this translated in English as "Shangpa Preliminary Practices", or just merely cited in bibliography of Timeless Rapture?
Volume 12, text 021 - dpal ldan shangs pa bka' brgyud kyi ngo mtshar rin chen brgyud pa'i rnam thar gsol 'ba 'debs pa u dumba ra'i phreng ba - Is this translated in English as "A Garland of Udumvara Flowers: Supplications to the Lives of a Wonderful Lineage of Jewels, the Masters of the Glorious Shangpa Instruction Lineage", or just merely cited in bibliography of Timeless Rapture?
Volume 12, text 023 - rje btsun rin po che'i rnam thar gsol 'debs kha skong dad pa'i me tog - Is this translated in English as "The Flower of Faith", or just merely cited in bibliography of Timeless Rapture?
Questions for Chökyi Nyima (Richard Barron)
Volume 03, text 008 - "rgyal ba'i bstan pa la 'jug pa'i rim pa skyes bu gsum gyi man ngag gi khrid yig bdud rtsi'i nying khu" (skyes bu gsum gyi man ngag gi khrid yig bdud rtsi'i nying khu)- He said it is an upcoming translation in Tsadra Foundation series. Any extra info?
Volume 03, text 023 - sgrub thabs rin 'byung las khol du phyungs pa dzam dkar lha lnga'i sgrub thabs rjes gnang dang bcas - Author discrepancy: Person:Ringu Tulku. Contents of the gdams ngag mdzod, 1999. does not have an author listed for this text- Martin, D.. A Catalog of the Gdams-ngag Mdzod, 1993. lists Lodro Thaye as the author (probably taken from the 'jam mgon gsung sdeb in the dkar chag), and Chokyi Nyima's report says the author is Taranatha, and the text was 'extracted' from his collection, sgrub thabs rin 'byung.
Questions for Karl Brunnhölzl
Volume 01, text 003 - zab don pad tshal 'byed pa'i nyi 'od - Karl had mentioned that this was in the process of being translated. Do we have any more information?
Questions for Sarah Harding
Volume 01, text 003 - zab don pad tshal 'byed pa'i nyi 'od - Is the rje bla ma pad+ma 'od gsal mdo sngags gling pa mentioned in the colophon of this text the same as [[1]] TBRC P2715? The colophon reads: 'di'ang gdod ma'i mgon po bde ba chen po dang zhal mi gnyis pa rje bla ma pad+ma 'od gsal mdo sngags gling pa'i zhal snga nas rtsa ba'i lung dang gnad don bkrol ba'i ljags bshad rjes gnang dang bcas pa stsal nas gdams mdzod du 'khod par gyis shig pa'i bka' lung spyi bor phebs par brten/_ris med kyi rnal 'byor spyod pa blo gros mtha' yas pa'i sdes bla ma'i zhal lung mdor bsdus te bkod pa dge legs 'phel//_//
Volume 01, text 009 - sems sde'i dbang chog bla ma'i zhal gdams - I'm not sure who the dge ba'i bshes gnyen ra dung brag pa mentioned in the colophon here is- he seems to be listed as having given the zhig po lineage transmission to g.yung ston rdo rje dpal bzang po?
Volume 01, text 013 - slob dpon dga' rab rdo rje nas brgyud pa'i rdzogs pa chen po sems sde'i pra khrid kyi man ngag - The colophon line: de'i rgya bskyor dga' rab rdo rje nyid kyis mdzad pa'i nyams sgron dang / makes me thing that this dga' rab rdo rje may be the one from the 19th century that's listed at TBRC, who authored the text rdzogs pa chen po bsam gtan nyams kyi sgron me [2]- which would also make the nam mkha rdo rje we have this text's author linked to at TBRC incorrect. However, the fact that Person:Mañjuśrīmitra is listed right after dga' rab rdo rje here makes me think it's the lineage founder Prahevajra. Any ideas on this?
Volume 01, text 014 - rdzogs pa chen po'i klong sde'i rgyud lung gi rtsa ba gces par btus pa rnams - The first text in this work appears to have been written down by slob dpon dga' rab rdo rje, which is clearly not the same person as Prahevajra here. This might help to resolve the issue with text 013 in this volume?
Volume 01, text 015 - sgom tshul bla ma'i byin rlabs rgyas pa'i cho ga khrigs su bkod pa ye shes chu rgyun - any thoughts on who the badz+ra pra b+ha mentioned in this text is?
Volume 02, text 018 - rdzogs pa chen po mnyam nyid rang grol - Not sure who the o rgyan gyi slob dpon chen po pad+ma'i dbang po mentioned in the colophon refers to. Maybe pad+ma 'byung gnas? the colophon reads: /rdzogs pa chen po mnyam nyid rang grol zhes bya ba/_/dpal o rgyan gyi slob dpon chen po pad+ma'i dbang pos legs par bzung ba'i rnal 'byor pa dri med 'od zer gyis gangs ri thod dkar gyi mgul du bkod pa rdzogs so//
Volume 09, text 004 - lhan cig skyes sbyor gyi khrid chos sku mdzub tshugs - For the person who requested this text: gu'i gung pa nang so mchod sprin pa, or the clouds of inner offerings who is the lesser, middle brother, a heart son of the glorious guru' - Not sure if that refers to Situ or Gyaltsap Rinpoche. Check out Shamar's website for a history of the original hierarchy set down during dbang phyug rdo rje's time [3] I need another source on this though. Any ideas?
Volume 11, text 001 - ye shes kyi mkha' 'gro ni gu ma'i chos drug rdo rje'i tshig rkang - I've put Niguma down as the author for this text- the colophon lists who bought it back from India, and who translated it, and the title clearly attributes the text to Niguma. Is it safe to say that Niguma is the author?
Volume 11, text 002, 003 - dpal ldan shangs pa'i gser chos lnga'i rtsa tshig 'khrul med rdo rje'i rgya mdud - Should khyentse wangpo be listed as the author here? The colophon seems to begin by attributing the text to him.
Volume 11, text 006 - Wylie:'jam mgon bla ma gu Na'i mtshan gyi skyes rabs gsol 'debs lha yi rnga bo che'i sgra dbyangs - There are several people mentioned in the colophon- it looks like 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po requested this text along with blo gsal karma rin chen dar rgyas- I'm not quite sure what role gter chen chos kyi rgyal po smin gling 'gyur med rdo rje played here, or who this is.
Volume 11, text 008 - dpal rgyud sde lnga'i dkyil 'khor gyi cho ga don gsal rgyas byed - The report lists Lodro Thaye as an author as well, but the colophon seems to say that he helped to popularize this text, not that he was an author.
Volume 11, text 013 - ni gu lugs kyi bde mchog lha lnga'i dkyil chog - The colophon attributes this text to kun dga' grol mchog, and Taranatha may have only written the prayer at the end? Or he may be considered a redactor for this work?
Volume 11, text 014 - ni gu lugs kyi bde mchog lha lnga'i tshogs kyi 'khor lo'i cho ga phrin las yar 'phel - The colophon says that rmog lcogs pa's verses were composed based on a teaching by kun dga' grol mchog. Which one do you think should be listed as the author?
Volume 11, text 018 - rgyud sde lnga gtso bsdus kyi bsnyen yig zab don snying po - any idea who the two others mentioned in the colophon, grub dbang bla ma ngag dbang chos 'phel, and karma sgrub brgyud bstan 'dzin phrin las are? I found very limited info on the second one at TBRC, but could use more on them.
Volume 11, text 019 - zab lam ni gu chos drug gi bka' bcu'i phyag len bklags chog tu bkod pa bde chen myu gu'i phreng ba - The colophon also mentions that rje bla ma dge slong a wa d+hU ti gave this lung and instruction to the author. blo gsal bstan skyong is listed as the author in the kara chag, not in the colophon. Also, any ideas who the paN chen ngag chos is at the beginning of the colophon?
Volume 12, text 01-03 zab lam ni gu chos drug gi khrid yig zab don thang mar brdal ba zhes bya ba bklags chog ma The report lists Tāranātha as the author for this text, but the colophon says he is a redactor. I've listed him as both for now, but this needs to be checked.- The first three texts in this volume have this issue. Is Taranatha the author or a redactor for these texts?
Volume 12, text 05 - ni gu'i yan lag phyag chen ga'u ma'i khrid - I'm not quite sure if the phrase yi ge'i rkyen ni at the end of the colophon really qualifies bka' bcu pa blo gros rgyal mtshan as a scribe or not, so this needs to be checked.
Volume 12, text 012 - su kha sid+d+hi'i lo rgyus rgya gzhung gsang sgrub lte ba sprul 'khor dbang chog rnams - Authorship for this text is complicated- there are multiple colophons and multiple authors mentioned. Look at 4a4, 4b7, 6a3, 8b6. I've listed the author as 'jam mgon kong sprul, as it is in Chokyi Nyima's report.
Volume 12, text 013, 019, 020 - same authorship question, see - dpal ldan shangs pa bka' brgyud kyi zab chos lha bzhi dril sgrub kyi khrid yig ye shes 'od 'phro - Not quite sure who qualifies as the author here, but the colophon seems to say that the text is attributed to mkhyen brste'i dbang po, and was written down without any alterations or corruptions by Kongtrul. This is similar to the issue with Vol 12 text 20.
Volume 12, text 012 - su kha sid+d+hi'i lo rgyus rgya gzhung gsang sgrub lte ba sprul 'khor dbang chog rnams - It seems like chos kyi shes rab is actually a bkod pa po in the colophon, and authorship is attributed to the dakini (sukhasiddhi). However, I've put chos kyi shes rab down as the auther here.
Volume 12, text 016 - ni gu'i brgyud 'debs - The report lists Tāranātha as the author of this supplication, but I wasn't able to find him listed in the text. I've listed him as the author for now, but this may deserve another look.
RE: Volume 12, text 021 - brgyud pa'i rnam thar gsol 'debs u dum wa ra'i phreng ba - This text lists lodro thaye as the author in the colophon, but the report says the author is Tāranātha?
Volume 12, text 024 - zab chos ni gu chos drug gi brgyud 'debs nyung 'dus bde chen 'bebs pa - This text appears to have been spoken by rnal 'byor gyi dpyid grub pa 'jam pa'i dpal, and requested by bde ba'i rdo rje. Both of these authors need to be verified. TBRC lists a few different bde ba'i rdo rje's- I'm not sure which one this is, and none of the ones listed on TBRC have an obvious connection to the shangpa lineage. I've listed bde ba'i rdo rje as the only author for now, as I could not find anything on rnal 'byor gyi dpyid grub pa 'jam pa'i dpal- any ideas who this is?
Volume 12, text 025 - ni gu ma'i smon lam bka' rgya ma - No author mentioned in the colophon- I have put Niguma down as the author from the title on the first page?
Volume 12, text 034 - mgon po phyag drug pa snying zhugs dang 'brel ba'i bla ma'i rnal 'byor - Not sure which lcang skya rol pa'i rdo rje this is, so the author's page doesn't have too much information on it. The author that matches this name on TBRC's website [4] is a kadampa and a gandenpa, which makes me think the lcan skya rol pa'i rdo rje who wrote this is a different person? There are also two colophons for this text, one that lists the above author and another that seems to say that this text was either received or taught (nos) by 'jam dbyangs nkhyen brtse'i dbang po.
Volume 13, text 02 - zhi byed snga phyi bar gsum gyi dbang chog rnams phyogs gcig tu bsgrigs pa bklags pas grub pa - Karchag lists 10 entries within this text, but they don't seem to be separate texts. Due to it being an empowerment manual, I could not find anything to correspond to these entries within the text.
Volume 14, text 19, lus mchod sbyin gyi zin bris mdor bsdus kun dga'i skyed tshal: Not sure who the 'jam dpal mkyen brtse on the colophon refers to. Is it mkhyen brtse'i dbang po?
Volume 14, text 12, gcod kyi tshogs las yon tan kun 'byung gsungs rgyun 'khrul med ltar bkod pa bzhugs pa'i dbu phyogs - This text mentions a few different mdzad pa po's , among which are rnal 'byor blo gros rin chen, and thong smyon bsam 'grub. Any idea who they are?
Volume 14, text 10, gcod khrid zab mo 'dod dgu'i char 'bebs - gcod pa kun dga' dbang phyug, mentioned in the colophon, appears to have some connection to the fourth trungpa tulku, drung kun dga' rnam rgyal. There is one listing on TBRC's website for a kun dga' dbang phyug [5] but this person is listed as as Sakyapa. The dates matsh up (I think). Any idea who this is?
Volume 14, text 09, gcod kyi tshogs las yon tan kun ldan gyi dmigs rim bla ma'i gsung rgyun gyi zin bris shel dkar me long - Do you know which bstan 'dzin rnam bdag this is? Also, do you know which 'gyur med rdo rje this is in the colophon?
Volume 14, text 08, gcod yul zab mo'i khrid yig gnad don snying po - any thoughts on who bya bral rin chen bkra shis, who requested this text, is?
Volume 14, text 07, zab mo bdud kyi gcod yul gyi khrid yig - I'm not sure who three of the people listed in the lineage at the end of the colophon for this work are- namely dam pa rgya gar (pha dam pa sangs rgyas?) Jnanjvala, and gnam mthso ba -any idea who they are? Any alternate names that I could find them under at TBRC?
Volume 14, text 04, shes rab kyi pha rol tu phyin pa'i man ngag gcod kyi gzhung shes rab skra rtse'i sa gzhung spel ba rin po che'i gter mdzod - I think that machik is the author of this text, but can you verify that for me?
Volume 14, text 02, shes rab kyi pha rol tu phyin pa'i man ngag gcod kyi gzhung 'grel zag med sbrang rtsi There appear to be several people that could be considered authors for this text- the colophon on 14b4 says that 'zal mo brag ba appears to have composed most of the various words and commentary on this text for the noble prince rin chen gsel of nyang,'(།དེ་ནས་རིམ་པར་བརྒྱུད་པ་ལས་ཟལ་མོ་བྲག་པས་ཉང་གྱི་ཇོ་སྲས་རིན་ཆེན་གསལ་གྱི་དོན་དུ། གཞུང་གི་དོན་འགྲེལ་དང་ཡིག་སྣ་མང་བར་མཛད་པར་སྣང་ལ།), but there appear to be others who contributed as well. Does this make zal mo brag ba the primary author? The next two lines say བདག་གི་བླ་མས་འགྲེལ་པ་འབྲིང་དུ་ལོང་བ་མཛད་ཅིང་། ཁོ་བོས་རྒྱས་བསྡུས་གཉིས་བྲིས་པ་ཡིན་ནོ། It's not clear who this second commentary author is here.
Volume 14, text 01, shes rab kyi pha rol tu phyin pa'i zab don bdud kyi gcod yul gyi gzhung - There are multiple texts and authors here, but because it is a root text, someone from the gcod lineage must have compiled them? Any ideas as to who put this collection of texts together? Also, is Bram ze Ārya de ba considered to be the same person as Āryadeva (Nagarjuna's student)?
Q:Wylie:Ring brgyud kyi gsol 'debs ma gcig gis mdzad par ban sgar 'jam dpal bzang pos kha bskang ba -
The colophon says: ། རིང་བརྒྱུད་ཀྱི་གསོལ་འདེབས་མ་གཅིག་གིས་མཛད་པར་བན་སྒར་འཇམ་དཔལ་བཟང་པོས་ཁ་ བསྐང་བ་ནི།
Colophon in Wylie: /ring brgyud kyi gsol 'debs ma gcig gis mdzad par ban sgar 'jam dpal bzang pos kha bskang ba ni/
Who is this: ban sgar 'jam dpal bzang po ? Is he this person http://tbrc.org/link?RID=P467 ?
A: Here's what I got back from Sarah on this : the title actually means "the supplication to the long lineage by Machik, appended by Bengar Jampal Zangpo" Since a prayer may be, and usually is, appended much later than the time of the original, since the lineage has many more names by then, I don't see any problem about the dates. If you want to send me page numbers in volume 14, then I'll look at the actual colophon. Hope you guys are having fun. love, Sarah --DrlEditorOne 15:38, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
Questions for Cyrus Stearns
Volume 03, - theg chen shin tu rgyas pa'i sems bskyed dang sdom pa'i cho ga byang chub sems dpa'i lam bzang - The colophon for the text lists skya pa 'jam dpal gzhon nu ngag dbang rdo rje rin chen bkra shis grags pa'i rgyal mtshan dpal bzang po as a source for this teaching, but I'm not sure who this is. My best guess is [6]TBRCP811, based on his connection to 'jam dbyans mkhyen brste'i dbang po?
Volume 04, text 013 - bka' gdams thig le bcu drug gi zab khrid kyi rim pa snying por dril ba grub gnyis mchog sbyin - The dkon mchog bstan pa rab rgyas associated with this text is currently linked to [7] at TBRC. This needs to be verified.
Volume 04, text 006 - rgyal ba'i sras po thogs med bzang po dpal gyis mdzad pa'i blo sbyong don bdun ma - Not sure which grags pa rgyal mtshan requested this text, but the dates for rje btsun grags pa rgyal mtshan (who's already in the DRL) don't match the dates for the author of this text.
Volume 05, text 001 - gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i gzhung rdo rje'i tshig rkang - Actual texts included within this should be checked, along with author information. Karchag information and authorship is unclear.
Volume 05, text 002 - gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i gzhung rdo rje'i tshig rkang gi 'grel pa - Judging from the colophon, it seems like this text was written down by grags pa rgyal mtshan (son of Sa chen kun dga' snying po), so he should be included in the catalog data somewhere. Also, it seems like the kun khyab rab dga'i snying should not be put down as the author's name here (though it is intended as a description of the author). The line grags pas .... mdzad also makes me think that this text was actually written down by grags pa rgyal mtshan. Any ideas on this?
Volume 5, text 006 - dpal kyai rdo rje man ngag lugs kyi dbang chog lung dang man ngag gi snying po bsdus pa - It seems like ngor chen dkon mchog lhun grub deserves authorship for this text, and that 'jam dbyangs blo gter dbang po should be listed as a redactor?
Volume 5, text 007 - gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i brgyud 'debs - I think that ngor chen kun dga' bzang po should not be listed as an author here, as this text is a supplement to a text written by ngor chen kun dga' bzang po written by 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po? The catalog data currently lists both of them as authors for this text. Any thoughts on this?
Volume 05, text 009 - lam sbas te bshad pa man ngag gi zin bris - Any ideas who the bkod khan 'bya btang pa ma ti' mentioned in the colophon is? Maybe ma ti pa?
Volume 05, text 011 - lam 'bras khrid yig 'bring po'i stag lung pa'i zin bris - I translate the title as "the manuscripts composed by the great Sugata dPal stag lung pa, on the glorious phag mo gru pa's teaching, the intermediate instructions on the path with its result." It seems like the author should be changed to stag lung pa here.(it's currently listed as phag mo gru pa).

Volume 07, text 003 - dpal 'khor lo bde mchog dwags po snyan brgyud lugs kyi dkyil 'khor gyi cho ga bde chen sdom pa - Kongtrul is described as a bkod khan in the colophon. Is he a redactor here or an author?
Volume 07, text 011 - rje btsun ras chung pa'i lugs kyi dpal 'khor lo sdom pa snyan brgyud gyi gzhung chung til+li pas mdzad pa - We need to verify if ti l+li pa is actually a prakrit spelling of Tilopa for this text.
Volume 07, text 012 - bum dbang dang 'brel ba'i nyams len thun mong yid bzhin nor bu'i khrid yig rje mi las mdzad pa - Colophon: Not sure which (bkod mkhan) rdo rje rgyal mtshan this is on TBRC, so there isn't much on his person page. Any idea who this is?
Volume 08, text 008 - bde mchog snyan brgyud kyi phyag rgya chen po ye shes gsal byed - The colophon attributes the text to mi la ras pa, who entrusted it to ras chung pa, and also mentions rdo rje rgyal mtshan brtse ba (who I couldn't find on TBRC, so it may be just another name for mila or ras chung pa?) as an author- maybe he just wrote the supplication at the end? The current author listed on this page reflects the author listed in Chokyi Nyima's report.
Volume 08, text 011 - rje btsun ras chung pa'i khyad chos lus med mkha' 'gro'i chos skor dgu'i gzhung man ngag dang bcas pa - ras chung pa - the colophon uses bkod pa - redactor or author?
Volume 08, text 012 - lus med mkha' 'gro'i chos skor dgu ti l+li pa'i gdams pa - The colophon says that the teaching was requested by ras cung dorje from te phu pa, and also says that it was originally set down by Tilopa. Any more information on te phu pa would be great. The link for ti phu pa (which I think is a match) doesn't have much information on it.
Volume 08, text 013 - lus med mkha' 'gro'i bsnyan brgyud kyi man ngag gi khrid yig - The colophon mentions that this text was written according to Gampopa's yig chung, but does this make Gampopa the author? The catalog page lists gampopa for now.
Volume 08, text 020 - sgam po pa bkra shis rnam rgyal gyis mdzad pa sgrub pa'i zhal bskos - Who is sgam po pa bkra shis rnam rgyal? Another name for Gampopa? or another name for dwags po bkra shis rnam rgyal?
Volume 08, text 023 - phyag rgya chen po sgom ma mo'i sngon 'gro dngos gzhi zhang rin po ches mdzad pa - The report lists de wa ku mA ra as another author for this text (mentioned in the colophon). Any ideas who this might be?
Volume 09, text 006 - rdo rje rnal 'byor ma lhan cig skyes ma'i bskyed rim gyi lha khrid rnam bshad zab mo rnam 'byed kyi snying po bsdus pa - It seems like gtsug lag 'phreng ba might be more reasonably considered a redactor here, and Marpa or Naropa considered the "authors."
Volume 09, text 007 - chos rje rang byung rdo rjes mdzad pa'i rlung sems gnyis med - It's clear from the title that Rangjung Dorje is the source for this text, but the lineage at the end of the text includes the fourth karmapa, and the regent who received the teachings from Rangjung Dorje and passed them on.
Volume 09, text 012 - rdzogs pa'i sangs rgyas dpal karma pa'i zab chos sku gsum ngo sprod kyi gdams pa - Authorship for this text is an issue, judging from the colophon. Should karma chags med rin po che be listed as an author if this text was written according to his instructions? I've listed the 14th Karmapa as the author to match the report, but this needs to be verified.
Volume 09, text 013 - dpal nA ro pa chen po'i gegs sel gzer lnga'i man ngag - It looks like the colophon for this text cuts off at the end. Any ideas who the author of this text might be?
Volume 09, text 014, 015 - dpal karma pa chen po la brten pa'i thun bzhi'i bla ma'i rnal 'byor dmigs khrid dang bcas pa - I'm not sure if the mthar pyin mentioned in the colophons of texts 015 and 014 is karma phrin las mthar phyin, or ogyen mthar phyin. Any thoughts on this?
Volume 09, text 017 - ri chos bai DUrya'i phreng ba zhes bya ba thar 'dod kyi mgul rgyan - From the colophon, it looks like this is actually an aspiration prayer composed by pad+ma rnam rgyal (not sure which one), which disagrees with the report(which says this text was composed by the 4th Trungpa). Any ideas about this?
Volume 10, text 007 - spyod pa chos kyi glu zhes bya ba 'byung ba ro snyoms kyi gdams ngag - The dkar chag says this text was taken from gtsang pa rgya ras' collection. The report attributes the text to him as well, but the title and the colophon suggest that Naropa may actually be the author (particularly because the colophon lists the name of the translator as well). Any ideas on who this text should be attributed to?
Volume 10, text 011 - bla ma phyi nang gsang bar sgrub pa'i gzhung - I have listed pad+ma dkar po as the author for this text as it is listed in the kar chag. However, the colophon says the text was actually written by klu sgrub snying po, and also lists Tilopa and Aryadeva in the lineage (Chokyi Nyima's report includes Naropa, but I did not find him listed in the colophon). I'm not sure how we want to assign authorship for this text. This also brings up the 'which Nagarjuna' issue. Does it make sense to make two pages for klu grub rnal 'byor pa and 'phags pa'i klu grub if they are considered to be the same person by the authors of these texts?
Volume 10, text 027 - phyag bzhi pa sku regs ma'i rgya gzhung dang 'khor lo gnyis ma'i khrid yig - I have this text listed without an author. Any ideas who the kun seng pa at the end of the lineage/colophon is here?
Volume 10, text 028 - thugs rje chen po dang bde mgon sbrags sgrub nag po gzi mdangs kyi sgrub pa zhes bya ba dpal chen rgwa lo tsA ba'i snyan brgyud - I've cataloged this text with karma chags med as the author (smras mkhan) and pad+ma thabs mkhas (bris mkhan) as the scribe, according to the colophon. this needs to be checked.
Volume 13, text 002, 004 - zhi byed snga phyi bar gsum gyi dbang chog rnams phyogs gcig tu bsgrigs pa bklags pas grub pa - is smin gling lo chen d+harma shrI an author or redactor for these texts? or both?
Volume 13, text 005 - grub chen dam pa sangs rgyas nas brgyud pa'i dam chos sdug bsngal zhi byed kyi lam lnga'i khrid yig dri med snang ba grub pa mchog gi zhal lung - I am entering in many+dzu g+ho Sha as a redactor for this work, following the line in the colophon that says : many+dzu g+ho Shas gong gshom gyi tshigs bcad gsar bsnan dar bcas te lung gi rgyun spel ba. Usually, a redactor is entered into the system if they are referred to as a bkod pa po, but in this case I think it is also appropriate. It also seems that bsod nams dpal and pad+mo ngal 'tsho ba, (one of bsod nams dpal's students?) may have authored this work. The kar chag only mentions the former, so I've enteres bsod nams dpal as the author for this text. Any thoughts on this?
Volume 13, text 007 - thugs kyi zhal chems pad mo brtsegs pa - Is a tsa ra sprang po the author for this text?
Volume 15, text 011 - dpal dus kyi 'khor lo'i sbyor drug gi sngon 'gro chos spyod kyi ngag 'don zung 'jug them skas - I have listed the author for this text as mkhyen gzigs rin po che, as it is in the colophon, but am not sure exactly who this is- so the author page for mkyen gzigs rin po che doesn't have much information on it right now. Could it be the 14th Karmapa? Also, the kar chag lists the 9th Situ Rinpoche as the author for this text. It has him listed as a mdzad pa po, and the colophon has mkhyen gzigs rin po che listed as the mdzad pa po, and the 9th Situ as the bris pa po.
Volume 15, text 019 - chos rgyal rigs ldan gtso bor gyur pa rdo rje'i rnal 'byor brgyud pa'i bla ma mchod pa'i cho ga rdo rje nyi ma'i snang ba chen po - It seems Kongtrul mentioned kun mkhyen dol po pa sangs rgyas in the colophon:(17a3 middle). Not sure if this means that Dol po pa should be listed as an author, or if Kongtrul is the appropriate author.
Volume 16, text 005 - grub thob brgyad cu rtsa bzhi'i rdzogs rim rin chen phreng ba rtsa 'grel - The colophon says that this text was taught by the 84 mahasiddhas, and specifically Tilopa. This needs to be verified.
Volume 16, text 017 - Wylie:'phags pa spyan ras gzigs kyi byang chub lam gyi rim pa'i khrid kyi cha lag man ngag gser gyi thur ma rin po che'i sgron me - is the author of this text also 'od dpag rdo rje?
Volume 16, text 018, 019, 020, 021, 022, 023 etc. - the texts in this volume attributed to 'od dpag rdo rje all have a similar issue re: authorship- is 'od dpag rdo rje considered and author here, or a redactor, or both? All of the texts that are attributed to rnal 'byor pa 'od dpag rdo rje have him listed as a bkod pa po, which we are translating as 'redactor' in the catalog. I have also put him down as a, author, but am not sure if he really qualifies as such.
Volume16, text 025Wylie:'phags pa spyan ras gzigs kyis grub chen mi tra dzo ki la gsungs pa'i rang gi sems nyid ngal gso ba'i man ngag - Who is the author of this text? This 'author name' seems to be very general and is not listed by TBRC.
Volume 17, text 001 - thugs rje chen po'i dmar khrid skyer sgang lugs kyi brgyud 'debs - This is a root text from the instructions of the four [main] Kadampa deities- there is no author listed in the colophon, any idea who it should be attributed to?
Volume 17, text 003 - thugs rje chen po'i smar khrid - Is it smar khrid or dmar khrid? Both spellings are used here.
Volume 17, text 004 - thugs rje chen po'i dmar khrid zla rgyal lugs kyi brgyud 'debs - There are 12 zla ba rgyal mtshans listed at TBRC- which one is this?
Volume 017, text 008 - kun mkhyen bo dong pa'i lugs kyi phyag rgya chen po lhan cig skyes sbyor dang zab gsal dbyer med zung du 'jug pa'i sngon 'gro'i ngag 'don ma rig mun sel - Again, the author for this text needs to be clarified- the colophon mentions kun mkhyen bo dong pa as the source for this text.
Volume 17, text 009 - bo dong lugs kyi phyag rgya chen po zab gsal gyi ring brgyud gsol 'debs ye shes mchog stsol - TBRC lists 10 different sangs rgyas ye shes'- not sure which one this is. Maybe it's gnubs sangs rgyas ye shes?
Volume 17, text 011, 012 - thub pa chen po'i gcod khrid kyi khrid yig zab don yang snying - I'm not sure who to assign authorship to for this text. There is no kun mkhyen bo dong pa chen po listed as a person at TBRC. However, this does seem like the appropriate author listing for this text. This needs to be looked into further. For now, I've created a page for kun mkhyen bo dong pa chen po without a TBRC link.
Volume 17, text 010 - bo dong ras chen dpal 'byor bzang po'i lugs kyi gtum mo zhag bdun ma'i khrid yig bla ma'i zhal lung - After looking at the colophon here again, it seems less likely that ras chen dpal 'byor wrote this, but the colophon does say that this text was written down exactly as it was taught by ras chen dpal 'byor, which makes me think it is ok to list him as an author here?
Volume 17, text 015 - thams cad mkhyen pa rong ston chen pos yum la gnang ba'i zab lam 'pho ba'i gdams skor - Byams pa 'phrin las yon tan clearly wrote this text, but it may also be appropriate to put rong ston down as an author, as this text is based on his instructions.
Volume 17, - kun mkhyen bo dong pa chen po? - is this an author or are these titles simply indicating that the texts are the lineage of Bo dong? See Gdams ngag mdzod DPL
Volume 18, text 002 - khrid brgya'i brgyud 'debs kha skong - btsun pa blo gsal bstan skyon definitely wrote this down, but the colophon seems to attribute the text to 'jam dbyangs mkyen brtse dbang po. this needs to be looked at.
Volume 18, text 006 - khrid brgya'i brgyud pa'i lo rgyus kha skong - Authorship- line 1b2 mentions that the text follows a composition by kun dga' grol mchog.
Volume 18, text 005, 007, 008 - khrid brgya'i sngon 'gro thun mong ma yin pa - Author? No colophon, but TBRC has kun dgaʼ grol mchog listed as the author in its catalog of the Paro printing.
Volume 18, text 012 - khrid brgya'i pod dbang byed tshul bla ma'i zhal shes yi ger bkod pa byin rlabs kyi za ma tog - From what I can tell, this text also lists kun dga' grol chog as a redactor (bkod pa), though I'm not 100% sure that the redactor wasn't a student of kun dga' grol mchog based on the material that precedes the 'de ltar' at the beginning of the colophon.

Needs to be entered in to the cataloging data for this text.
Volume 05, text 001 - gsung ngag rin po che lam 'bras bu dang bcas pa'i gzhung rdo rje'i tshig rkang - Chökyi Nyima and Cyrus Stearns says this text contains smaller texts not listed by TBRC or in the karchag. There is some colophon material for the texts listed in this work- 7b6 (bsod nams seng ge) 9a2 (grags pa rgyal mtshan),14a5 (lho brag pa dkar ston jo sras), 16a4, 17a7(dge slong kun dga' bzang po). Some of these colophons do list authors, which I've included here. I put the colophon from 17a7 on the catalog page.
Volume 05, text 010 - brda' don gsal ba'i khrid yig bdag chen rdo rje 'chang gis mdzad pa - The entire last page of this text is marked brgyud yig, and gives extensive information regarding the lineage for this text. The text itself seems to end on pg 457 (13a7)? The final page looks like an excerpt from a larger text. Maybe it is a separate text (grub thob chos drug gi khrid yig gzhung rnying bcas bzhugs)?
Volume 06, text 020 - blo sbyong zhen pa bzhi bral gyi skor - Text contains other titles. Translated individually in Mind Training: The Great Collection Not listed seperately by TBRC or in the karchag
Volume 08, text 021 - skye med zhang rin po ches mdzad pa'i phyag rgya chen po'i lam mchog mthar thug - This text contains a second title on 9b6 ('pho ba don gyi grong 'jug bzhugs/) It also looks like it starts with the lo rgyus, and then the root text begins on 5b3 (/sems khrid yid bzhin nor bu bzhugs so/)?
Volume 10, text 001 - phyag chen lhan cig skyes kyi khrid yig gzhung chung rdo rje'i tshig rkang yid bzhin nor bu - The end of 3a1 contains a different title - dpal nA ro chos drug gi khrid yig yid bzhin gyi nor bu zhes bya ba bzhugs/ - not sure where we want to note this on the catalog page.
Volume 10, text 018 - rgyal ba yang dgon pa'i khyad chos ri chos yon tan kun 'byung gi snying po ma drug gi gdams zab - I'm not sure that these qualify as 'separate texts,'- the colophons don't have much information in them, so they're probably all attributed to the same redactor, rgyal mtshan dpal, who I've also listed as an author for this work for now. Here's the note for this text - There appear to be separate colophons on 24b6, 15b4 (which is followed by a group of six subject headings?), a new section of the text (or a new text) that starts on 10b1.
Volume 12, text 012 - su kha sid+d+hi'i lo rgyus rgya gzhung gsang sgrub lte ba sprul 'khor dbang chog rnams - there are multiple colophons and multiple authors mentioned. Look at 4a4, 4b7, 6a3, 8b6. I've listed the author as 'jam mgon kong sprul, as it is in Chokyi Nyima's report. Martin, D.. A Catalog of the Gdams-ngag Mdzod, 1993. also lists one text not on the catalog page on pg. 294, 8b6 - ste ba'i 'og tu chos 'byung gcig bsgom/
Volume 12, text 026 - shangs pa bka' brgyud kyi mgur mtsho - There are a few different colophons throughout this text, some that attribute the material to lodro thaye and some that do not. not sure if we want to list them individually on the catalog page.
Volume 13, text 001 - dam chos sdug bsngal zhi byed kyi gzhung gsang ba bsam gyis mi khyab pa'i rgyud sde'i dum bu rin po che'i snying po - after looking at the text a bit more, it definitely contains multiple colophons, and multiple authors. I originally cataloged it as authored by mi bskyod rdo rje, but he is only the final author of one of the stotras at the end. I've entered in the phrase 'Contains multiple colophons' and 'Mutliple authors' in the appropriate fields for now.
Volume 17, text 006 - grub pa'i dbang phyug thang stong rgyal po la thugs rje chen pos dngos su gnang ba'i snying po yi ge drug pa'i nyams len gyi gzhung gsal byed dang bcas pa - There appears to be another text that begins on 10a4 of this work. The first colophon, which directly precedes the title for this separate text, is attributed to blo gros mtha' yas.
Volume 17, text 022 - tshe sgrub zhag bdun ma'i nyams len gyi rim pa 'chi med bdud rtsi'i bcud len - New text on pg.336 (3ba). Looks like this text was requested by 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse dbang po. I haven't listed him as an author here.
Volume 17, text 027 - rje btsun sgrol ma yid bzhin 'khor lo'i zab khrid thun mong ma yin pa'i yi ge bde ldan mgon po'i zhal lung ring 'tsho'i bsil sbyin - There appears to be a colophon on 12b1 and a new text title that begins on 12b4.
Volume 17, text 029 - bla ma tshe lha rnam gsum gyi rnal 'byor dang rjes su 'brel bar tshogs gnyis spel ba'i cho ga 'chi med grub pa'i dga' ston - There appears to be a colophon on 9b4 in addition to the one at the end of the text. As far as I can tell, this one attributes the text to 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po also. I'm not sure if we want to record it in the catalog.
Volume 18, text 015 - Wylie:'dul ba'i las chog mthong ba don ldan - check 32b6- it looks like this is the beginning of a new text. There is a colophon here, and possibly a second title.
Colophon Problems
Texts with multiple colophons: as I've been going through the colophons in the collection, I haven't been adding in colophons for texts that were cataloged with the data 'Multiple colophons' on the catalog page. These still have to be added in.--DrlEditorOne 16:06, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
Volume 03, text 007 - byang chub lam gyi rim pa nyams su len tshul gyi phyag bzhes snying por dril ba - the a chung in the 'phun tshogs in the following line may actually be something else b/c there is not spelling of phun with an a chung in it. - 'dzam gling na yongs su grags pa'i shing rta chen po rnams dang mkhyen rtogs dbyer mi phyed pa rje btsun bla ma ngag gi dbang phyug byams 'phun tshogs dpal bzang po'i bka' drin las/ - This may be intended as byams ba'i phun tshogs, or as byams la phun tshogs?
Volume 08, text 006 - bde mchog mkha' 'gro snyan gyi brgyud pa yid bzhin nor bu la gsol ba 'debs pa byin rlabs dpal ster - There are two colophons for this text, as far as I can see. The first one (2b3) says that 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po wrote the supplication at the beginning of the text, and mentions having understood the instructions from dbang phyug dpal bzang po [8] on this topic, which resulted in this supplication. The second colophon (21a3) refers to the instruction give to ras chung pa from milarepa, and also refers to two texts that this text is related to?
Volume 8, text 016 - sngon 'gro'i khrid yig thun bzhi'i rnal 'byor - Colophon question: The khan ma thob med par in the first line needs to be checked. Also I think the ri pa pa in the second line should probably be ri pa po, and have left a footnote in the colophon material on the cataloging page.
Volume 10, text 027 - phyag bzhi pa sku regs ma'i rgya gzhung dang 'khor lo gnyis ma'i khrid yig - this text has a long lineage listed as its colophon. I've already put the text on the colophon page- do we want to catalog the lineage somehow?
Volume 12, text 014 - su kha sid+d+hi'i zhal gdams kyi skor dang gzer gsum gdams pa rnams - The colophon for this text has several notes in the pecha that I've tried to recreate here using footnotes.Also, I believe the last line of the colophon should read gcig las med na instead of gcig las mad na, but this needs to be verified.
Volume 15, text 001 - rdo rje'i rnal 'byor yan lag drug pa'i rgyud dang man ngag gi snying po'i gzhung - I'm not sure who actually wrote this text down, but judging from the colophon, Shavari seems like the first one to teach it. It seems to have been requested "from the three followers of lha mtsho" which is probably guru lha mtsho [9]? The kar chag lists Śavaripa as the source for this teaching as well.
Volume 15, text 007, 008 - sbyor drug gegs sel - The second line 'brgyud pa'i bla ma gong ma so so'i man ngag gi yi ge bzhin du phyogs gcig tu bsdus pa yin' in the colophon makes me think that Taranatha could also be considered a redactor for this work instead of/in addition to being an author?
Volume 15, text 014 - dpe med mtsho'i lugs kyi rnal 'byor yan lag drug pa'i khrid rdo rje'i tshig 'byed - The first line of the colophon is problematic - la stod byang nas rje btsun kun dga' chos kyi sgron mas gsol ba btab pa'i ngor - does this refer to [10] or to [11]. I think it refers to the former because of the note on TBRC's website. however, the fact that there is a nas following the la stod byang makes this confusing. Did this kun dga' chos gron request the teaching from someone named la stod byang? Or did this kun dga' chos kyi sgron ma request this teaching from Padma dkarpo (which is what I've gone with for this page).
Volume 15, text 015 - snying po rdo rje'i tshig ces bya ba lce rtse rkan sbyar gyi gdams ngag gi rtsa ba - It seems like ri khrod zhabs, mentioned in the colophon, should be a person's name, but it doesn't come up on TBRC's website. It could just be a general name for the inhabitants of the hermitages from whom nags kyi rin chen received this teaching?
Volume 15, text 021 - grub chen o rgyan pa'i gdams ngag rdo rje gsum gyi bsnyen sgrub kyi gzhung - Chokyi Nyima's report has a ? next to the o rgyan pa, so this may deserve another look. Judging from the title of the first text and from the colophon, could this text be a gter ma?
Volume 15, text 022 - bsnyen sgrub kyi 'brel bshad yid bzhin nor bu - Colophon quesion: TBRC begins the last line of this colophon with spen- I think it is spe na (in pe- a place in Tibet), but this should be verified.
Volume 16, text 002 - bla ma rdo rje 'chang grub thob brgyad cu rtsa bzhi'i byin rlabs lhan cig tu bya ba'i tshul dngos grub chu rgyun - Colophon question: I'm not sure about the spelling for grub mchog grwa pa'i na bza' can in the second line of the colophon. The pecha scan is difficult to read. This needs to be checked- it's on pdf pg 108 of Volume 16.
Volume 16, text 024 - chos skyong brag lha mgon po'i mngon rtogs - Colophon question: I'm not sure if the third line in the colophon says 'ris su sdeb tu med pa la' or 'ris su sde pa tu med pa la.' Also, the colophon mentions rje btsun grags pa rin chen and g+hi rti rat+na- who I believe are the same person here, but this needs to be confirmed.
Volume 16, text 028 - sems nyid ngal gso'i brgyud 'debs gnas sbyar ma - Chokyi Nyima's report also has bco brgyad khri chen listed as an author, but I didn't see him in the colophon, so I left him out.
Volume 17, text 002 - spyan ras gzigs dpal mo lugs kyi brgyud 'debs - There are two short colophons in this text- the first is a supplication on 1b4 by 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po, and the second does not appear to list any author, though it may also be 'jam dbyangs mkhyen brtse'i dbang po. I entered both colophons into the cataloging data. The title for the second text, also found on 1b4, reads: thugs rje chen po'i dmar khrid dpal mo lugs kyi nyams len snying por dril gzung 'jug myur lam bzhugs so/
Volume 17, text 016 - grub chen zhi ba sbas pa'i thugs bcud bka' babs bdun ldan gyi gzhung rdo rje'i lam bzang po - This text has a lot of colophon material that lists off several different redactors. Taranatha is mentioned as a translator, and the end of the colophon seems to qualify him as an author as well. This could use another look though to see if there's any more information in the colophon that we want to include on the catalog page.
Volume 17, text 019 - bcud len gyi gdams pa rim pa lnga pa - The colophon has bya bral ba dge 'dun rgya mtsho dpal bzang po listed as a redactor- I've put him down as and author here too, though this is a written manual from an oral instruction lineage- not sure if we want to keep him as an 'author,' but we should probably put him down as a redactor in the cataloging data on the page if he doesn't qualify as an author. Also, there is a very clear lineage given at the end that might be interesting to include in the catalog somehow.
Volume 17, text 028 - sgrol dkar yid bzhin 'khor lo'i tshe khrid zla ba'i chu rgyun gyi nyams len snying po bsdus pa - Colophon issues: on 5b1 of this text there is a syllable 'dzug (part of tshe grub 'dzug 'dun) that didn't come up in my dictionary.
Volume 18, text 001 - Wylie:Khrid brgya'i brgyud 'debs brjod bde brgyud pa'i mtshan sdom cung zad gsal bar bkod pa - There appears to be some colophon material on 18b2 in addition to what I've put on the cataloging page. As far as I can tell, it does not list any other source for the text than kun dga' grol mchog, so it may not be necessary to include this.
Issues in cataloging formats
We should probably add a {{གྲུབ་ཆེན་}} category for mahasiddhas to the Classical Indian Author stub. - DONE --Marcus 00:33, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
Volume 11, text 014 - ni gu lugs kyi bde mchog lha lnga'i tshogs kyi 'khor lo'i cho ga phrin las yar 'phel - this text is one of the few (the only?) texts that explicitly lists an editor in the colophon, which has been recorded in the metadata and in the cataloging data under Editor:- I've been making all of the cataloging data headings uniform throughout the catalog, but I have not been adding a field for editors. We may want to add this in the future, or put these people under another heading with a note that they edited the text?--DrlEditorOne 22:18, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Volume 02 - many of the texts in this volume (def. all of the texts by long chen pa, use bkod pa in the colophon - I've left notes on most of them regarding the question of whether bkod pa means redactor, author, or possibly both--DrlEditorOne 19:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
Volume 04, text 004 - multiple authors-multiple texts - the texts in this work are already on the catalog page, but we need to add their respective authors. We need a cataloging format for texts with multiple authors.
If there's a reference in the colophon for the texts that I cataloged, I put a note in the tibetan field as well as the wylie field. Looking at how Tim did it, I think I probably have to go through and delete the reference markers in the wylie and just put a (see note) there?--DrlEditorOne 20:39, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
all of the texts that I've cataloged don't have anything written in the cataloging data under scribe, etc., when they aren't given in the colophon, and Tim's pages all have 'None given' written in these fields. -A
Volume 10, text 008 - dpal mkha' spyod dbang pos mdzad pa'i ro snyoms skor drug gi khrid yig - this text lists a lineage at the end that we may want to include in the catalog somehow.
As I've been entering in scribes, redactors, editors, translators, etc. into the category fields of each page, I've realized that we may want to change the way the category link on the author page reads. Right now it reads "works by ... in the research library," which is most appropriate for authors, but might have to be revised for scribes, redactors, editors, and people associated with the text (like someone who requested the teaching).
Volume 10, text 021 - chos drug rdo rje'i gzhung - I have rgyal mtshan dpal bzang po listed as a redactor and as an author for this text for now. The colophon says he's a bkod mkhan- do we want to have him listed as both?
Some pages have rgya gar skad du: no title, some don't have any rgya gar skad du: but do have bod skad du: even if no titles.
Volume 15, text 015 - shangs lugs bde mchog lha lnga'i sgrub thabs kyi rnam par bshad pa zab don gsal byed - The colophon contains a detailed transmission lineage for this text, which may be useful to include in the cataloging data.
Volume 15, text 016 - lce rtse rkan sbyar gyi khrid rdo rje 'dzin pa'i nye lam - There are a few issues here with identifying who the members of the lineage listed at the end of this text are and assigning them person pages in the catalog. I have left two of the names without a link because they are The people who have been linked to this page need to be verified.
Volume 15, text 025 - bsnyen sgrub kyi khrid yig - zla ba seng ge wrote this down just as he received the instructions from rje grub thob chen po (o rgyan pa?). Again, maybe this should be included somehow.
Volume 16, text 013 - chos skyong brag lha mgon po'i rjes gnang bgegs dpung 'joms byed - The tibetan transliteration of this author's name appears to be a misspelling of Kīrtiratna, as the tibetan rendering of the name later in the colophon (rnal 'byor pa grags pa rin chen) suggests. I'm not sure if we want to keep the (prakrit?) transliteration or not.
Volume 17, text 017 - bka' babs drug ldan gyi 'khrid yig 'phags yul grub pa'i zhal lung - There are many colophons like this one, that mention that the text was written down according to another person's teachings 'just as it was spoken.' Maybe we should include the source of the teaching as well as the author of the text in the catalog? I am also not sure which 'kun dga' snying po' this is, which needs to be clarified if we're going to include him in the cataloging data.
Volume 17, text 026 - sgrol dkar yid bzhin 'khor lo'i bla ma brgyud pa'i gsol 'debs - There is a short colophon on 1a7 that attributes the opening verses to pan+de blo gsal. Not sure if we want to record this, or where.
Volume 17, text 028 - sgrol dkar yid bzhin 'khor lo'i tshe khrid zla ba'i chu rgyun gyi nyams len snying po bsdus pa - Author issue: The colophon here lists a long lineage, going back to Atisa. This might be useful information to include in the cataloging data.
