-*Termas are very often discovered in the form of a [[yellow scroll]] ([[shog ser]]) on which are written a few syllables in symbolic [[dakini script]] ([[mkha' 'gro brda yig]]). These letters can only be deciphered by the [[tertön]] to whom the legacy of the spiritual treasure belongs, and are unintelligible to anyone else. [MRKT-ShabkarNotes]
-*[[Terma]], Hidden Treasure; [[hidden treasure]] (teaching); concealed and rediscovered treasure, teachings which have been concealed and rediscovered. [[revealed treasures]], spiritual treasures, revealed spiritual treasures. ([[RY]])
-*[[Treasure]] ([[GD]])
-*Cache, (buried, discovered, [[dharma]]) treasure, (buried, concealed) books, teachings, articles, scripture, see also: [[sa gter]] ([[earth treasure]]) and [[dgongs gter]] ([[mind treasure]]), [[hidden teachings]], discovered dharma treasures, hidden scriptures, hidden treasures, rediscovered treasures.

-*hidden treasure (teaching). ([[RB]])
-*[[terma]], concealed and rediscovered treasure/ teachings, hidden teachings. ([[IW]])
-*[[Terma]]. '[[Treasure]]'. 1) The transmission through concealed treasures hidden, mainly by [[Guru Rinpoche]] and [[Yeshe Tsogyal]], to be discovered at the proper time by a '[[terton]],' a treasure revealer, for the benefit of future disciples and followers of [[Dharma]]. It is one of the two chief traditions of the [[Nyingma School]], the other being '[[Kama]]'. This tradition is said to continue even long after the [[Vinaya]] of the Buddha has disappeared. 2) Concealed treasures of many different kinds, including texts, ritual objects, relics, and natural objects. ([[RY]])
-*The Dharma-language ([[chos skad]]) term "Terma (gter ma)", comes from the root "ter (gter)" which is a collection of anything, so 'Terma' is simply treasure; treasure trove; cache; store; deposit and so on, but being specifically a buddist term it actually means: hidden, concealed, or discovered, revealed dharma / buddhist teachings.
