The original Sanskrit version is no longer extant.

Tibetan Translation

The Tibetan translation is found in the General Sutra section of the Kangyur, Toh 340. The Tibetan text has no translator’s colophon, and there is no direct evidence of when, or by whom, it was made. Several sources, including Butön’s History of the Dharma, mention that it was translated by Drenka (bran ka) Mūlakośa and Nyak Jñanakumara during the reign of King Tridé Tsuktsen.
