At the Dalai Lama’s inspiration, Pema Trinley composed a commentary on the Guyagarbha Tantra. He was also famous for teaching the Kalachakra Tantra as well as several Anuyoga texts. Since the time of [[Rigdzin Godem]], the [[Northern Treasures]] had been maintained in three streams: one from Rigzen Godem’s consort, one from his son [[Gompo Namgyel]], and one from his students originating with [[Gompo Dorje]]. These three streams of practices were collected and combined into one by Pema Trinley who also wrote volumes of commentaries on the original treasures. His commentaries on how to perform rituals for the [[Northern Treasures]]' Rituals are still those relied on in all centers and monasteries. In this regard, his kindness and help to the Northern Treasures is inestimable. His writings are the key that unlocks the [[Northern Treasures]]. They are well known for combining amazing depth of meaning with elegantly simple syntax so that everyone can understand, each at their own level. In this way, [[Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche]] has written that Pema Trinley's commentaries are like giving sight to the blind. | At the Dalai Lama’s inspiration, Pema Trinley composed a commentary on the Guyagarbha Tantra.
