Summary

Oriane Lavolé talks about the history of treasure revealers ( tertöns ) from 11th-century Tibet to contemporary Nepal, how apologists for the treasure tradition ( terma ) have responded to skeptics who dismiss its material foundations, and what site guides to sacred territories can teach Western Buddhists about the ecological roots of the religion. Interview by Miles Osgood.
