Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava, is often referred to as the 'Second Buddha' by Tibetan Buddhists due to his pioneering contributions to the development of Buddhism in Tibet during the eighth century. His teachings, particularly on tantric techniques, have had a long-term impact on the Buddhist tradition. Guru Rinpoche's legacy includes buried terma treasures, which are designed for future discovery to aid creatures in times of need, demonstrating his ongoing direction and safeguarding of the Dharma.
