"This volume introduces readers to volume 5 of The Treasury of Precious Instructions, the first volume that treats the teachings of the Sakya school. The Sakya school's principal teaching is known as Lamdré or the Path With Its Result. According to traditional Sakya sources, Lamdré was first taught some 1200 years or so following the parinirvāṇa of the Buddha by the Mahāsiddha Virūpa to Kanha, the lesser of his two disciples. It was passed down as an oral tradition through a series of Indian siddhas and entered Tibet in the middle of the 11th century, and finally written down in 1141 CE by Sachen Kunga Nyingpo. While the details of that story are fairly well known and have been written upon quite a bit, much less is known by the general reader about the portrayal of the rise of Secret Mantra Vajrayāna and the origins of the Hevajra cycle of tantras according to the Sakya tradition"--
