In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Mind-training in Tibetan refers to Lojong (blo sbyong) and forms the basis for 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 edited notes. The notes are based on teachings given by one of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo’s masters from the Geluk tradition, Könchok Tenpa Rabgye (1801–1866). The root text, the “Eight Sessions Mind Training”, is attributed to Dromtön Gyalwe Jungne (1005–1064).
Mind Training (Tibetan: blo sbyong) is a Tibetan Buddhist meditation practice that helps devotees remove destructive emotions and develop compassion towards all sentient beings. To have universal compassion is not only a crucial goal for Mind Training (blo sbyong) practice, but is also a representative characteristic of the career of a Bodhisattva in Mahāyāna Buddhism. [...]
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.
