In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: MDPI Books: The Ocean of Heroesrtsa (嘟⑧京) refers to the 鈥渋nner channels鈥�, according to Alakakala艣a鈥檚 commentary on the Yogin墨sa峁僣膩ra (Cf. Indrabh奴ti鈥檚 quotation from the Badzra d膩 ki rgya mtsho).鈥擳here is a passage which mentions aspects of the subtle yoga centered on the elements of the subtle body, such as the inner channels (rtsa), the inner fire or Ca峁囜笉膩l墨, and the immortality nectar that flows down from the burnt chakra in the head. Indrabh奴ti quoted this to explain the deity Yoga, which a practitioner performs in a fire-oblation (ritual). Indeed, the 岣屇乲膩r峁嘺va includes many discourses that teach forms of the subtle Yoga.
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.
