Masters of wisdom in the ascension stages game (Buddhism, Tibetan)
- Vidyahara
- Way of drilbu
Description
Those on the way of intuitive wisdom follow the "feminine" way, the symbol is the bell. Masters on this path to liberation who have reached the summit of wisdom in their philosophic framework are referred to as [vidyahara]
or wisdom-holders. They may have developed as far as is possible in the system they are following, or they may be bodhisattva yogis with scope for further advancement on the path, with the ultimate aim of achieving Buddhahood. This way is contrasted with the way of the vajra masters - the "masculine" way of skilful wisdom.
Context
One of the two ways leading to Buddhahood and ultimate consciousness, according to Tibetan Gelugpa Buddhism.
