In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Experience: The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhismklong bzhi (ཀློང་བཞི) in Tibetan refers to the “Four Spaces” which comprise the four kinds of Spatial Class (Longde or klong-sde) which represents one of the three Divisions of Atiyoga (Dzogchen).—Longde (klong-sde) teaches that all apparitions of reality are free from activity and liberated from the extreme of the antidote, because they are perfectly gathered in Samantabhadrī, the space of reality. [...] If classified, this Spatial Class (Longde, klong-sde) consists of four categories [of teaching]: [...] There are four sub-classifications, [...] If these [four kinds of Spatial Class] are then subsumed, they comprise the teaching of the Four Spaces (klong-bzhi), concerning display (rol-pa), adornment (rgyan), reality (chos-nyid), and freedom from activity (bya-bral). If these categories of the Spatial Class (longde) are similarly subsumed, they are gathered into Nine Spaces.
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.
