The Treasure of Life, also known in the Monijiao tradition as Jìng mìng bǎozàng jīng (traditional Chinese: 淨命寶藏經; simplified Chinese: 净命宝藏经; lit. 'Pure Treasure Sutra'), is one of the seven treatises of the prophet Mani, written and regarded as part of the major canon of Manichaeism. The title is possibly derived from Christ's parable of the hidden treasure from Matthew 13:44, which is followed by the parable of the pearl in Matthew 13:45–46; incidentally, pearls are a major metaphor used in Mani's teaching.
