I just found out yesterday that there is a namthar of Terton Migyur Dorje, the terton who revealed the Nam Cho treasures, and that there is an English translation. In fact there are three namthars, all written by Karma Chagme. The outer namthar has been published by Palri Publications in Nepal and is titled: "The All-Pervading Melodious Sound of Thunder: The Outer Liberation Story of Terton Migyur Dorje", by Karma Chagme, translated by Lopon Sonam Tsewang and Judith Amtzis with a foreword by HH Penor Rinpoche.
I'm trying to find out how to order copies now. However, the entire work has also been broken down into multiple pdf files and is available from the Tibetan Buddhist Resource Center.

Kirt's Tibetan Translation Notes
"Even if you practice only for an hour a day with faith and inspiration, good qualities will steadily increase. Regular practice makes it easy to transform your mind. From seeing only relative truth, you will eventually reach a profound certainty in the meaning of absolute truth."
Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.
"Only you can make your mind beautiful."
HH Chetsang Rinpoche
"Most all-knowing Mañjuśrī, ...
Please illuminate the radiant wisdom spirit
Of my precious Buddha nature."
HH Thinley Norbu Rinpoche

I did, but I don't remember how you do it anymore (it was complicated). I still have the copy (as one file) if anyone have problem downloading it.

Dzogchen masters I know say: 1)Buddhist religion essence is Dzogchen 2)Religions are positive by intent/fruit 3)Any method's OK unless: breaking Dzogchen vows, mixed as syncretic (Milanese Soup) 4)Don't join mandalas of opponents of Dalai Lama/Padmasambhava: False Deity inventors by encouraging victims 5)Don't debate Ati with others 6)Don't discuss Ati practices online 7) A master told his old disciple: no one's to discuss his teaching with some others on a former forum nor mention him. Publicity's OK, questions are asked from masters/set teachers in person/email/non-public forums~Best wishes

What is the meaning of the term 'namthar'?
"Things are not what they appear to be: nor are they otherwise." --Surangama Sutra
Phenomenon, vast as space, dharmata is your base, arising and falling like ocean tide cycles, why do i cling to your illusion of unceasing changlessness?

"Namthar" Means "Liberation Story" if one translates it literally.
It's a spiritual hagiography, really.

It is realized through the blessing grace of the Guru and fortunate Karmic potential.
