" OM SVASTI
Dharmakaya - Great Mother Prajnaparamita, Samantabhadri;
Sambhogakaya - Vajravarahi endowed with fivefold certainty;
Nirmanakaya - the twenty-one emanations of Noble Tara;
I pay homage to the magical emanation (of the three kayas) - Yeshe Tsogyal."

Khenchen Palden Sherab

This secret biography of Yeshe Tsogyal is a terma teaching, narrated and concealed by Yeshe Tsogyal herself at the request of Nub Sangye Yeshe, one of the twenty-five close disciples of Padmasambhava. It was revealed by Terton Drime Kunga (dri med kun dga'), an emanation of Sangye Yeshe who appeared in Central Tibet in 14th century.

This extraordinary life-story is profound and symbolic, focusing on inner experiences and visions rather than conventional sequence of events.
