- Notes on authorship
- The colophons of this text that are found in the Tengyur, the Indian Mahāmudrā Collection, and the Eight Dohā volume (vol. 4) of the rTsibs ri’i par ma collection state that the author is Saraha (do ha mdzod ces bya ba phyag rgya chen po’i man ngag dpal ri khrod pa chen po sa ra ha’i zhal snag nas mdzad rdzogs so). There are instances of Saraha being referred to in Tibetan as ri khrod pa chen po, ri khrod dbang phyug, or shavara (a transliteration of the Sanskrit shabara), which has possibly led to or contributed to mistakenly considering this text to have been authored by Saraha’s student Shavarī (also known as Sabara).

Information about Unicode Tibetan and the digitization of this text
As the only available unicode Tibetan text at the time, Nitartha International's version of the Gdams ngag mdzod Paro Edition of the gdams ngag mdzod is provided here. However, note that it has not been thoroughly edited and that there may also be mistakes introduced through the conversion process. Eventually we will provide a fully edited version of the entire Shechen Edition, entered and edited multiple times by Pulahari Monastery in Nepal, but as of fall 2017 that project has not been finished. Note that the folio numbers that appear throughout were added by Nitartha Input Center at the time of input.
