Summary
The great Nyingma master answers the questions of a fellow seeker on the whole of the Buddhist path.
Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa (1730–1798), revealer of the Longchen Nyingtik, the Heart Essence of the Vast Expanse, wrote The Treasury of Scriptures in reply to a letter addressed to "all the gurus and spiritual friends of every direction". His answer is a complete account of the teachings as the Ancient Translation school understands them: the vehicle of the sūtras, the Secret Mantra, the three inner yogas, the Great Perfection with its tantras and tenets, how the teachings came to Tibet, and his replies to the objections of other schools.
This first English translation also includes the short life of Jigme Lingpa from the Tibetan edition and a collection of his letters to disciples and lamas across Tibet and Bhutan.
Translated from the Tibetan, with an introduction, notes, glossary, bibliography and index, by Rob Newton M.D.
