Six Yogas of Niguma
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Six Yogas of Niguma (Wyl. ni gu chos drug) — These six inner yoga practices originate from the Indian yogini Niguma and were transmitted to the yogini Sukhasiddhi and her Tibetan disciple Khyungpo Naljor, founder of the Shangpa Kagyü school.
These six doctrines have the same titles as the Six Yogas of Naropa but differ in the details of how they are practised.
These teachings were also transmitted from the Shangpa Kagyü tradition to the Gelugpa school.
The second Dalai Lama, Gendün Gyatso, wrote a commentary to these six yogas called ni gu chos drug rgyas pa khrid yig.
