Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
1) Emanating (one’s body) (Cf. Multiplying) refers to one of the topics for mind-training (in Tibetan: lojong) forming part of the Eight Sessions Mind Training.—Cf. the “Succinct Notes on the Eight Sessions Mind Training”—an instructional text on mind training (lojong) in the form of notes based on teachings given by Könchok Tenpa Rabgye (1801–1866)—one of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo’s masters from the Geluk tradition.
2) Emanating (the body) (Cf. Transforming oneself into a wish-fulfilling jewel) forms another one of the Eight Sessions Mind Training. It can also be described as “training the mind by transforming oneself into a wish-fulfilling jewel”.
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.
