In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: Google Books: The Crystal Mirror of Philosophical SystemsThe Zhongyong (“Doctrine of the Mean�) refers to one of the �Four Textbooks� (in Confucian tradition) which are known in Chinese as sishu and in Tibetan as yig cha bzhi.—Accordingly, [while describing the history of the tradition known as the “star-like Ru”]: The first king, Fu Xi, composed a text on the bagua (eight trigrams) called Lianshan; it was the first of the great texts to appear, and it became the principal treatise on the subject. [...] Now, Confucius was the illuminator of the Ru tradition, but he wrote only a few of its basic verse texts; his disciples and grand-disciples commented extensively upon them in what are known as the sishu, or “four textbooks� [e.g., Zhongyong (Doctrine of the Mean)]. All Chinese scholars first study these later writings and make them the basis of their education.

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.
