inner being (Tib: nang-pa)

Another term for Buddhist, so called because the person has entered "inside" the teachings of the Buddha by taking heartfelt refuge in the Three Jewels, thus differentiating from an "outer being" (Tib: chi-pa) who relies on non-Buddhist philosophies and external phenomena as sources of happiness.
