About 2500 years ago Lord Buddha appeared in this world and taught three levels of teachings renowned as Hinayana, Mahayana and Vajrayana. The Vajrayana, which contains profound skillful means for the swift attainment of enlightenment was given only to a select group of worthy recipients while the other teachings were spread wide and far.
At the verge of passing into nirvana, the Buddha foretold the coming of Padmasambhava, a great master who would be the chief propagator of the Vajrayana teachings. Padmasambhava or Guru Rinpoche, was an emanation of the Buddha himself and was miraculously born from a lotus flower in the country of Uddiyana.
In accordance with the Buddha's prophesy Padmasambhava spread the Vajrayana teachings and tantric rituals in India, Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan and many other countries. Through a special short lineage of hidden Dharma treasures known as terma as well as through an unbroken lineage of transmission from master to disciple, Guru Rinpoche's legacy and instructions of the innermost essence of Buddhism is still kept alive.
The terma teachings were hidden by Padmasambhava in caves and in the minds of his close disciples. They were sealed with his sacred aspiration to be revealed at certain times for the benefit of future generations by a terton, a treasure revealer, a reincarnation of one of the close disciples and an emissary of Padmasambhava himself.

One of these incarnated tertons was Chokgyur Lingpa who appeared in this world in 1828, born in the eastern part of Tibet. His name, birth place, the chief recipients of his revealed teachings and the effect of the spread of his teachings were all prophesied by Padmasambhava.

The revealed termas of Chokgyur Lingpa have had an immense impact on Vajrayana Buddhism in the 150 years that followed and are being widely practiced throughout the world. One of the main reasons for this was that the 14th and 15th Karmapa were among his chief disciples. Moreover these noble recipients, the masters propagated the teachings that Chokgyur Lingpa revealed.
