Treasures from Juniper Ridge combines meditation and pith practice 
instructions in a way that is easy to apply and comprehend. It is a compilation 
of discovered teachings, termas, by the greatest master of Vajrayana 
Buddhism, Padmasambhava, hidden by his female disciple, Yeshe Tsogyal. 
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
