In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: Wisdom Experience: The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhismbshad pa rang gsal (བཤད་པ་རང་གསལ) in Tibetan refers to “those transmitted precepts given in the manner of exegeses which are naturally clear�. It refers to one of the two kinds of the [rgyud rang-gzhung-du bstan-pa (teaching which accords with its own textual tradition of tantras)] which represents one of the three categories of the Esoteric Instructional Class (Mennagde or man-ngag-gi-sde) which represents one of the three Divisions of Atiyoga (Dzogchen).—The essence of the third category (rgyud rang gzhung du bstan pa)—is essentially the point of origin of all transmitted precepts. It is naturally effortless with respect to renunciation and acceptance because it is devoid of ṃs and Ծṇa; and, characteristically, it is untouched by disputation concerning emptiness because it does not abide in sounds or words. Its subdivisions are fourfold: [e.g., those transmitted precepts given in the manner of Exegeses which are Naturally Clear (bshad-pa rang-gsal)]

Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (Բ) are collected indepently.
