In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Daśabhūmīśvara (दशभूमीश्वर) refers to the “master of the ten Bodhisattva stages”, according to the Nāmamantrārthāvalokinī by Vilāsavajra, which is a commentary on the Nāmasaṃgīti.—Accordingly, [while describing Mañjuśrī]—“He is [described in NS 10 as] the jñānasattva since he dwells in the heart of all the tathāgatas. The jñānasattva Mañjuśrī is not the bodhisattva that is the master of the ten [bodhisattva] stages (daśabhūmīśvara). Rather, he is non-dual gnosis, the perfection of wisdom itself”.
Daśabhūmīśvara (दशभूमीश्वर) is the name of a deity [i.e., oṃ daśabhūmīśvarāya svāhā], according to the Guru Mandala Worship (maṇḍalārcana) ritual often performed in combination with the Cakrasaṃvara Samādhi, which refers to the primary pūjā and sādhanā practice of Newah Mahāyāna-Vajrayāna Buddhists in Nepal.—
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 (vajrayāna) are collected indepently.
