"Termas are texts uttered by Padmasambhava in the 8th century in Tibet, then hidden to be discovered later by predestined "terma discoverers," in an epoch that would need them. These termas may take the form of materially written texts, hidden in rocks, walls, or other places, or directly given to the discoverer by a deity. They also can be revealed in the mind. In that case, they are called gongters, as was the case of the Tara terma received by Chogyur Lingpa." Bokar Rinpoche
