In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: Google Books: The Crystal Mirror of Philosophical SystemsDependent (phenomena) refers to one of the 鈥淭hree Natures鈥� or 鈥�Three Characteristics鈥� (in Cittam膩tra ontology) representing the three types of phenomena which are known in Tibetan mtshan nyid gsum.鈥擳he Cittam膩trins assert that dharmas established from their own side, without being merely imputed by thought, are specifically characterized, established by their own characteristics, and truly established; while dharmas established as mere imputations by thought are the reverse. They assert both the dependent nature and the thoroughly established nature as truly established, and the imaginary nature as non鈥搕ruly established. These are the three 鈥渘atures鈥� or 鈥渃haracteristics鈥� [e.g., dependent phenomena (gzhan dbang, paratantra)] into which, according to Cittam膩trins, all existents may be divided.
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鈥檚 words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (惫补箩谤补测腻苍补) are collected indepently.
