mdzod bdun

mdzod bdun, known in English as The Seven Treasuries or the Seven Great Treasuries Though these seven works cover virtually the entire range of Buddhist teachings, they are especially associated with the Dzogchen tradition. In the Nyingma lineage, these works are considered the most thorough and accurate presentation of Dzogchen view and practice.
