Notes

Highlighted portions: [1] "Whereas the dharma could not be established during the reign of the five previous kings, the devaputra Khri srong led btsan, Ācārya Bodhisatva, dBa' Ye Shes dbang po and 'Ba' sang shi—those four—established seats for the triple gem (and) the noble holy dharma was propagated widely in the region of Tibet." [2] "This is the end." [3] "So ends the dBa' bzhed, the account from the dBa' perspective, the text of the noble narrative of how the Buddha dharma came to the region of Tibet." [4] "Thus it was that the dharma was first founded." [data manager: ercsynergyasia@yahoo.co.uk]
