Notes

The phrase Bka' rgyud bla ma'i 'bangs kyi brtsams ("Composed by the disciples/servants of the Kagyu Lamas") appears on the front covers of series of annotated interlinear commentaries on the major Indian treatises published under the series title 'bri gung bka' rgyud kyi nang rig gzhung 'grel skor. It is unclear whether this is intended to be an official name for a group of individuals such as the editorial board of the series. However, some of the books in this series are attributed to the lead editor Ra se dkon mchog rgya mtsho.

The Kagyu school traces its origin to the eleventh-century translator Marpa, who studied in India with Nāropa. Marpa's student Milarepa trained Gampopa, who founded the first monastery of the Kagyu order. As many as twelve subtraditions grew out from there, the best known being the Karma Kagyu, the Drikung, and the Drukpa.
