Four yogas (Wyl. rnal 'byor bzhi) — four stages of attainment in the meditation practice of Mahamudra.

  1. one-pointedness (Tib. tsé chik; Wyl. rtse gcig), which establishes the state of shamatha
  2. simplicity (Wyl. spros bral), which is reached through the clear seeing of vipashyana
  3. one taste (Tib. ro chik; Wyl. ro gcig), when shamatha and vipashyana become one
  4. non-meditation (Tib. gom mé; Wyl. sgom med) is reached when one goes beyond the mind, and beyond the concept of a meditator meditating, the level of Dzogchen.
