Among these Eighteen Major Scriptures of the Mind Section of the Great Perfection, Vairotsana was only able to translate these first five scriptures into Tibetan and they were therefore later known as the Five Early Translations of the Mind Section. During Vairotsana’s exile Vimalamitra and Yudra Nyingpo later translated the other thirteen. EPK
