Dakini Teachings: Padmasambhava's Oral Instructions to Lady Tsogyal

According to legend, Padmasambhava's oral teachings to his chief disciple -Yeshe Tsogyal, Princess of Kharchen- were recorded in coded language called dakini script and concealed for centuries. The words of advice collected in this book are part of the ancient tradition of religious texts knownas "terma" (treasures)- works that were hidden in secret places during the first spread of Buddhism in Tiet, in the 9th century, to be rediscovered by qualified persons "tertons" and newly expounded to future gnerations.
