Tiklé (Skt. bindu or tilaka, Tib. ཐིག་ལེ་, Wyl. thig le) lit. 'sphere' or 'essence-drop' – the essences within the psycho-physical system.
According to Jamgön Kongtrul, tiklé denotes the 'essence or seed of great bliss', and has two aspects:
- first, the ultimate tiklé of primordial wisdom (Tib. དོན་དམ་ཡེ་ཤེས་ཀྱི་ཐིག་ལེ་, Wyl. don dam ye shes kyi thig le) and
- second, the (relative) substantial red and white tiklés (Tib. རྫས་ཀྱི་ཐིག་ལེ་, Wyl. rdzas kyi thig le).
The substantial tiklés are of two kinds:
- the quintessential or refined (Tib. དྭངས་མ་, Wyl. dwangs ma), and
- the residual (Tib. སྙིགས་མ་, Wyl. snyigs ma).
The residual tiklé is further subdivided into refined and residual:
- the first (refined-residual) gives radiance and strength to the body;
- the second (residual-residual) refers to the essential fluids that are emitted from the body.
Alternative Translations
- essential fluids (Light of Berotsana)
