Hi Han, well you can add that information to the CPN page, and also add a footnote to this article. But I don't think we can say Jetsün Kushok Chimey Luding is making a 'mistake'; maybe she is talking about Tara sadhanas in general, not about the specific view of the CPN sadhana.--[[User:Sébastien|Sébastien]] ([[User talk:Sébastien|talk]]) 19:12, 22 September 2015 (CEST)

Hello all - Just as a matter of interest – there are at least three levels of sadhana practice – outer, inner, and secret. If you were to take as an example the Green Tara practice revealed by the gterma revealer Mchog 'gyur gling pa which is part of the Zab tig grol ma gterma cycle. The cycle contains three distinct levels of sadhana: outer inner and secret. The outer sadhana consists basically of an upa/charya style four mandala offering practice (which is the Zabtik Drolchok practice that we do here at Lerab Ling)so the conduct is basically the same as kriyayoga hence the emphasis on abstaining from meat and alcohol, etc.; the inner contains a mahayoga level coarse and subtle generation stage, and the secret is an anuyoga level completion stage. - Tsondru

hey sebastien, there is kind of a mistake here because according to dzongsar khyentse CPN is a anuyoga practice, not kriya
