མྱངས, འཆིང་བ and སྨྱུ་གུ are visual readings replacing noisy OCR. The Tibetan does not state a personal name or gender here; pronouns in the translations are grammatical conveniences. The ending continues into L3.

The word after མིག and the phrase between སྣང་ཞེན་དང and སྒྲུབ་པའི remain unresolved. Accordingly, the first clause is only partially translated, with its incomplete syntax retained.

The final qualification of the lineage/blessings is unresolved. Visible མཐའ and མེད་པའི are retained, but their intervening syntax is not reconstructed or assigned a complete translation. བཀའ་བབས is rendered provisionally as 'transmission descended'; its precise technical force requires contextual review. The final noun continues into L5.

སྤུ་ལོང, ངང་ནས and ངན་སོང are visual corrections of the noisy OCR. The final phrase is read provisionally as ཕོ་ཉའི་ལམ, literally 'messenger's path'; its specialized meaning is not inferred. The page ends after ཟིན; no missing continuation or terminal sentence punctuation is supplied.
