intro.4
The Dhāraṇī of the Buddha’s Essence does not appear in the Kangyurs of mainly Thempangma lineage, but it is present in the predominantly Tshalpa Kangyurs and in a number of mixed, Bhutanese, and Mongolian Kangyurs, and is mentioned in the catalog of the old Mustang Kangyur.³ Butön recorded the mantra from this text in his Collection of Dhāraṇī of the Four Classes of Secret Mantra (gsang sngags rgyud sde bzhi’i gzungs ’bum).⁴
