Treasures is replete with pieces that are direct, profound, fresh, and pertinent to our times. These various revelations are for all levels of practitioners. They provide indepth explanations of assorted aspects of practice, including: deity, death and dying, non-conceptual meditation and recognizing mind nature. The book outlines ways to apply these teachings for the modern student, while remaining true to traditional principles.
“Padmasambhava’s pith instructions are extremely important because he is not just a legendary figure or an ancient myth. He is an actual person who continuously carries out spontaneous activities, including manifesting as treasure revealers, so that there is always a fresh, unimpaired teaching that people can practice. This also ensures that Padmasambhava’s spiritual influence and blessings are unceasing.
"The special quality of these terma teachings is that they provide a method for accomplishment that is appropriate for each specific generation, period of time, and individual person who meets them. The treasure teachings he gave on the Juniper Ridge of Crystal Pearls contain the essential meaning of hundreds of such instructions.” —Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Sometimes you find something that, when you are reading it, rings the bell of truth in you, over and over again. This is one of those books. Thanks to my friend, an old member of the great Sangha, for mentioning Padmasambhava to me. I feel blessed to have seen a record of some of his teachings.

This is a Buddhist religious text filled with incredibly insightful teachings. The translation work is very impressive, I never really had a hard time understanding the concepts.
If you're Buddhist or interested in Buddhism, then read it. If not, then don't. Personally, I think I'm a little bit better of a person after reading it. -
collected teachings of padmasambhava (the lotus born) given to lady tsogyal and others, sealed away as secret treasures for later generations.

This book gave me lots of insights on how to change your mind, but might be difficult for some people to understand.
