An absolute treasure for students of the tradition, it is also an indispensable reference for anyone with an interest in Buddhism.

Among the most widely read of all His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche's works, these treatises were composed during the years immediately following his arrival in India as a refugee. His intention in writing them was to preserve the precise structure of the Nyingma philosophical view within its own historical and cultural context.
