The Treasury of Blessings—A Practice of Buddha Shakyamuni (Tib. ཐུབ་ཆོག་བྱིན་རླབས་གཏེར་མཛོད་བཞུགས་སོ།, Tubchok Jinlab Terdzö, Wyl. thub chog byin rlabs gter mdzod bzhugs so) — a practice or ritual (Tib. ཆོག, Wyl. chog) of Buddha Shakyamuni which was written by Ju Mipham Rinpoche in 1900 at the request of Orgyen Tendzin Norbu. It resembles the form of a sadhana but does not require an empowerment.[1] The practice begins with a reference to verses from the Samadhiraja Sutra: "Those who, while walking, sitting, standing, or sleeping, recollect the moon-like Buddha, will always be in Buddha’s presence and will attain the vast nirvana. And: "His pure body is the colour of gold, beautiful is the Protector of the World. Whoever visualizes him like this practises the meditation of the bodhisattvas."

Both the practice and its vast 'supporting teaching' known as the White Lotus are among the most popular of Mipham's works.[2]
