The Garland of Views: An Instruction was written by Padmasambhava. It is a note summarising the different views and vehicles starting from the shravaka to Dzogchen. It is the only text in the Karma collection attributed to him; all his other compositions belong to the category of terma. This was composed by Padmasambhava as a summary of all his instructions that he gave the King and his retinue before he left Tibet. Having an understanding is necessary for practitioners in order not to get lost on the path to enlightenment.
