The Treasury of Precious Instructions by Jamgön Kongtrul Lodrö Taye, one of Tibet's greatest Buddhist masters, is a shining jewel of Tibetan literature, presenting essential teachings from the entire spectrum of practice lineages that existed in Tibet. In its 18 volumes, Kongtrul brings together some of the most important texts on key topics of Buddhist thought and practice as well as authoring significant new sections of his own.
In this, the 14th volume, Kongtrul compiles the teachings on Severance, or Chöd. It includes some of the tradition's earliest source scriptures, such as the "grand poem" of Aryadeva and numerous texts by the tradition's renowned founder, Machik Lapdrön. Kongtrul also brings together the most significant texts on the rites of initiation, empowerments for practice, and wide-ranging instructions and guides for the support of practitioners. Altogether, this quintessential guide to Severance offers vast resources for scholars and practitioners alike to better understand this unique and remarkable tradition - the way of severing the ego through the profound realization of emptiness and compassion.

This text records an ancient oral practice originally transferred via royal and noble lineages in Northern India – and recorded in the late Classical age of India, based on the Six Perfections and the Bodhisattva path, which in itself are one of the earliest texts.
Well translated and performed

How did the narrator detract from the book?
The narrator is clearly not a practitioner and pronounced many Tibetan and Sanskrit words. In particular the word "phet" which is crucial to this text, and appears hundreds of times, is pronounced by the narrator as "faat", it really takes away from the teachings.Excellent content, challenging naration
