Longchenpa's commentaries on this cycle of teachings comprise three further volumes, which are known as the Khandro Yangthig (Tib: mkha' 'gro yang thig).

The teachings of the Vimalamitra's lineage are contained in four volumes, known as the Vima Nyingthig (Tib: bi ma snying thig. Longchenpa's commentaries on this cycle of teachings comprise two volumes, which are referred to as the Lama Yangthig (Tib: bla ma yang thig).
