The path of seeing ((Skt. darśanamārga; Tib. tonglam; Wyl. mthong lam) is the third of the five paths. It is divided into sixteen moments.

Patrul Rinpoche:

“It is called the path of seeing because it is here that one first sees the supermundane wisdom of the noble ones.”
  • At the path of seeing one becomes an Arya, or a sublime one. Arya literally means noble or sublime. The Tibetan word for Arya (pakpa; ‘phags pa) means elevated or exalted, as in elevated above the level of an ordinary, samsaric being.
