Guru Köncho Chidu (dkon mchog spyi 'dus). Ratnasamanyasamgha: This is the Sanskrit name used by Kongtrül himself. The Tibetan is dkon mchog spyi 'dus. Pronounced approximately as Köncho Chidu. dKon mchog "The rare and supreme" is the Tibetan translation for the Sanskrit word Ratna, "jewel", here meaning the three jewels of the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. sPyi 'dus, literally "general-gathering" is the Tibetan for Samanyasamgha, meaning the union or embodiment of the Three jewels. Thrangu Rinpoche provided the translation "The Essence of the Three Jewels", which is a translation that expresses the actual meaning, rather than a more wooden literal translation. The Sanskrit is rather over-long for general use, and the name Köncho Chidu is already very familiar to a great number of people, so I have primarily used this. In context, an English translation of a deity's name, is unfortunately difficult to use, as it usually results in a phrase that blurs into the surrounding text, or sits rather awkwardly within it. However I have used it in various locations, such as in the title of the book. [Peter Roberts]

The Sahor costume is so called because it was given to him by the king of Sahor (a kingdom in north east India, in the present day Bhagalpur area, to the east of the more well known area that contains Rajghir, Bodhgaya and Nalanda), who had attempted to have Padmakara burned at the stake for associating with his daughter, princess Mandarava. Having developed faith in Padmakara, due to witnessing his miraculous powers, the King offered to him the princess and his whole kingdom. In particular, he gave to Padmakara the royal costume of the king of Sahor, which was principally, the great silk robe, which is usually shown being worn by Padmakara on top of the rest of his clothing, and the royal hat that had a vulture feather or peacock feather crest. This kind of ceremonial hat was quite commonly worn amongst Indian potentates as their insignia. The exact appearance of the Sahor royal hat is uncertain, so there are various slightly differing representations of it. But this is the most familiar costume in which Padmakara is portrayed.

Guru Vidyadhara (bla ma rig 'dzin). A deity and set of scriptures belonging to the Nine Sadhana Sections. Often the Guru Vidyadhara and the eight herukas in the Eight Sadhana Teachings form a single mandala with nine groups of deities. The chief existing scripture for the teachings on Guru Vidyadhara is called the Root Tantra of the Assemblage of Vidyadharas (rig 'dzin 'dus pa rtsa ba'i rgyud) and is the fifteenth tantra within the Assemblage of Sugatas, an immensely detailed collection of teachings on the Eight Sadhana Teachings and associated Vajrayana material brought to Tibet by Padmasambhava and taught to his main disciple. The Assemblage of Sugatas was concealed as a terma and later revealed by Nyang Ral Nyima Özer. The practice of Guru Vidyadhara is expressed through the principle known as the four aspects of approach and accomplishment. The most detailed terma on this principle was revealed by Sangye Lingpa (1340-1396) and is still renowned as Lama Gongdü (bla ma dgongs 'dus) in 18 volumes of approximately 700 pages each. The Guru Vidyadhara is also the basis for innumerable sadhanas propagated by other tertöns, for instance the Rigdzin Dupa cycle within the termas of Longchen Nyingtig as well as the Barchey Künsel cycle revealed by Chokgyur Lingpa and Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo that are both widely practiced to this day.
