In Tibetan religious literature, Jamgon Kongtrul's Treasury of Knowledge in ten books stands out as a unique encyclopedic masterpiece embodying the entire range of Buddhist teachingst.

This volume one, which serves as a prelude to Kongtrul's survey, describes four major cosmological systems found in the Tibetan tradition-–those associated with the Hinayana (Foundation level), Mahayana, the Kalachakra, and Dzogchen teachings. This is a direct translation of Jamgon Kongtrul's work in 300 pages

We also carry PDFs of Tai Situ's commentary on this Treasury of Knowledge in this section of the website.
