is volume 1 containing the author’s own commentary, because it presents the commentary directly in English avoiding all the constraints
of a translation and because it includes all of the important material from the other two commentaries. Volume 2 contains Taranatha’s
commentary which is the one mainly used by Kagyu followers these days. Volume 3 contains Ju Mipham Namgyal’s commentary which
