In the Lhasa and Narthang Kangyurs, we find two recensions of The Two Stanza Dhāraṇī in the Sūtra and Tantra sections. The Phukdrak Kangyur contains three recensions, two in the Sūtra section and one in the Tantra section. The first version in the Sūtra section (Phukdrak 142) is noteworthy because it comprises only the first two verses and the dhāraṇī. It is then followed by another text, the Traigāthā (tshigs su bcad pa gsum pa, Phukdrak 143), which corresponds to the last three stanzas of the usual recensions of The Two Stanza Dhāraṇī.¹⁴ - [Previous: intro.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.other.gathadvayadharani*bo~en-84000.intro.4) - [Next: intro.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.other.gathadvayadharani*bo~en-84000.intro.6) - [Up: intro](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.other.gathadvayadharani*bo~en-84000.intro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.other.gathadvayadharani*bo~en-84000.intro.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.other.gathadvayadharani*bo~en-84000.intro.5) · Pramāṇa
