Rigpa Shedra (August 2009) provide a useful outline of the text which in its original composition consists of eleven chapters from which the following summary is founded:
- the 'ground and basis of reality' (Wylie: gzhi) and how that 'ground' dynamically manifests itself (Wylie: gzhir snang);
- how sentient beings stray from the 'ground';
- how all sentient beings have the essence of enlightened energy;
- how 'primordial wisdom' (Wylie: ye shes) abides within us;
- the pathways;
