Peaceful Deities from the Mandala of Hundred Peaceful and Wrathful Deities

Key to the Precious Treasury: A Brief Overview of the Glorious Secret Essence Tantra (Tib. མཛོད་ཀྱི་ལྡེ་མིག་, Wyl. mdzod kyi lde mig) is Dodrupchen Jikmé Tenpé Nyima's famous commentary to the Guhyagarbha Tantra.

In the life and liberation of Tertön Sogyal it says: "For days the scholar-hermit spoke about the origin of the tantric teachings in this world, and laid bare the most sublime meaning of mantra, mudra, mandala, empowerment, samaya, and other elements crucial to a yogi's practice. Tertön Sogyal sat by his side working as the scribe with a bamboo quill and rice paper. The Commentary was entitled The Key to the Precious Treasury, and Dodrupchen would say after they finished composing the treatise that it exposed his heart."[1]
