Chapter 5 is almost entirely composed of the contents of Putting an End to Karmic Obscurations (), differing only in its introduction and conclusion. Toh 556’s chapter 5 is identical in its translation to the sūtra as it appears in the Kangyur. Even where there are some minor differences between this chapter 5 and the sūtra in the Degé Kangyur versions, those discrepancies do not exist in earlier Kangyurs. The translators of Putting an End to Karmic Obscurations were Jinamitra, Dānaśīla, and Yeshé Dé, and their translation appears to have been incorporated into the translation of this twenty-nine-chapter Sūtra of the Sublime Golden Light. Chapter 6 primarily comprises The Sūtra of Akṣayamati’s Questions (), without the introductory setting and with additional verses and an extra conclusion. That sūtra was translated by Silendrabodhi and Yeshé Dé, and their translation has been incorporated word-for-word into this translation of The Sūtra of the Sublime Golden Light by Jinamitra, Nalendrabodhi, and Yeshé Dé.
