Precious
Essence

The first Barway Dorje was
a precious revealer of treasure and the rebirth
of Nupchen Sangye Yeshe, one of Guru Padma's
twenty-five disciples. Barway Dorje appeared
in Tibet during the nineteenth century, and
was praised and respected by the many holy
beings of his time as an authentic treasure
revealer. His many treasures include The Sadhanas
of the Vidyadhara Guru, The Vajrakila Cycle,
and The Dakini Cycle, all of which contain
profound instructions pertaining to ripening
and liberation. The previous Gyalwang Karmapa,
Rikpe Dorje, displayed great interest in The
Vajrakila Cycle in particular.
In addition to his treasures, Terchen Barway
Dorje composed many works of his own that
have been of great service to the essence
teachings, such as his Barom Kagyu Mahamudra
and Six Doctrines.
One handwritten edition of his biography
exists, and is found in both India and Tibet.
I am delighted that English and Chinese
translations of it are being published,
and I make the dedication and aspiration
that this good work may plant the seed of
liberation in beings.
His Holiness the Seventeenth Karmapa,
Ogyen Trinley Dorje
From Precious Essence, "An Account
of the Essence of This Life"
In the vast ocean
of buddha nature
The little fish of mind itself, with the
golden
eyes of awareness,
Flaps the six wings of the inner faculties.
The outer faculties move about in the ten
directions.
If the outer and inner retain this golden
gleam
Object and subject are powerful and not
two.
Self-awareness is the perfect buddha! emaho!
May this be realized by myself and all beings!
This was composed by Dechen Barway Dorje.
May all attain buddhahood."
