Source: academia.edu: The Structure and Meanings of the Heruka MaṇḍalaSaṃbhogapuṭa (संभोगपुट) is another name for Saṃbhoga: the third layer of the Herukamaṇḍala: a large-scale and elaborate maṇḍala of Heruka, consisting of 986 deities, as found in the Ḍākārṇava chapter 15.—The Herukamaṇḍala consists of four layers (puṭa) consisting of concentric circles (cakra, totally one lotus at the center and 12 concentric circles, that is, 13 circles in total).
Source: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesSaṃbhogapuṭa (संभोगपुट) refers to the “enjoyment layer”, according to the 10th-century Ḍākārṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Accordingly, [while describing the Merit Circle (guṇacakra)]: “[...] As [the whole maṇḍala is] a fourfold circle (viz., comprises four layers), he should subsequently make the Dharma, Enjoyment (saṃbhogapuṭa), and Emanation Layers in order. [puṭaṃ dharmasaṃbhoganirmāṇaṃ paścāt kāryā yathākramāt ] [...]”.
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.
