Three higher realms (mtho ris gsum). The worlds of human beings, demigods or asuras, and gods or devas. These realms are more pleasant than the lower realms of animals, hungry ghosts and hell beings, but are not places of lasting happiness since even the highest realms of the gods are still within samsara.

[[Three Inner Tantras]] ([[nang rgyud sde gsum]]). [[Mahayoga]], [[Anu Yoga]], and [[Ati Yoga]]. These three sections of tantra are the special characteristics of the [[Nyingma School]] of the Early Translations. According to [[Jamgön Kongtrül]] the First, "The [[Three Inner Tantras]] are also known as the '[[Vehicles of the Methods of Mastery]]' because they establish the way to experience that the world and beings are the nature of mind manifest as kayas and wisdoms, that everything is the 'indivisibility of the superior two truths,' and hereby ensuring that the practitioner will become adept in the method of gaining mastery over all phenomena as being great equality." The [[Three Inner Tantras]] are, respectively, also renowned as '[[development, completion, and great perfection]]' or as '[[tantras, scriptures, and instructions]].' According to Mipham Rinpoche, the Three Inner Tantras reached Tibet through six different lines of transmission: 1) As perceived by ordinary people in Tibet, Padmakara, the Second Buddha, taught only the Instruction on the [[Garland of Views]] but bestowed both the profound and extensive empowerments and instructions of all of the [[Three Inner Tantras]] to his exceptional disciples including Sangye Yeshe, Rinchen Chok, Lui Wangpo of Khön, and many others, the oral lineages of which have continued unbroken until this very day. Moreover, the major part of his teachings were sealed as terma treasures for the benefit of followers in future generations. 2) When the great translator Vairochana extensively had received the profound teachings of the Great Perfection from the Twenty-five Panditas, especially from Shri Singha, he returned to Tibet and imparted the Mind Section five times, as well as the oral lineage of the Space Section, both of which are continued uninterruptedly. 3) The great pandita Vimalamitra arrived in Tibet and taught the Instruction Section chiefly to Tingdzin Sangpo of Nyang. This lineage was transmitted both orally and through terma treasures. 4) Sangye Yeshe of Nub received from four masters in India, Nepal and Drusha innumerable teachings headed by the important scriptures of Anu Yoga and Yamantaka. His lineage of the Scripture of the Embodiment of the Realization of All Buddhas is still unbroken. 5) Namkhai Nyingpo received the transmission of the teachings of Vishuddha from the Indian master Hungkara which he then spread in Tibet. 6) During following generations, incarnations of the king and the close disciples of Padmasambhava have, and still continue to do so, successively appeared, as great masters who at opportune times reveal the profound teachings that had been concealed as terma treasures, in order to ensure the supreme welfare of people in Tibet and all other countries, both temporarily and ultimately.

THREE JEWELS (dkon mchog gsum). The Precious Buddha, the Precious Dharma and the Precious Sangha. In The Light of Wisdom (Shambhala Publ.), Jamgön Kongtrül explains: "The Buddha is the nature of the four kayas and five wisdoms endowed with the twofold purity and the perfection of the twofold welfare. The Dharma is what is expressed, the unconditioned truth of total purification comprised of cessation and path, and that which expresses, the two aspects of statement and realization appearing as the names, words and letters of the teachings. The Sangha consists of the actual Sangha, the sons of the victorious ones abiding on the noble bhumis who are endowed with the qualities of wisdom and liberation, and the resembling Sangha who are on the paths of accumulation and joining as well as the noble shravakas and pratyekabuddhas."[AL] [RY]

Three Kayas - The Mahayana recognizes the three aspects (Trikaya) of the Buddha: Dharmakaya (Chos kyi sku), lit. 'Dharma body'; Sambhogakaya (Longs spyod kyi sku), lit. 'Enjoyment body'; and Nirmanakaya (sPrul sku), lit. 'Representation body'. Dharmakaya is voidness and its realization, beyond time and space, and is pure transcending awareness. The Sambhogakaya, the pure enjoyment aspect of the Dhyanibuddhas, also represents the aspect of communication. The Nirmanakaya forms are embodiments taken by Buddhas among earthly beings in order to clarify the way to enlightenment. Rupakaya - The Sambhogakaya and the Nirmanakaya are sometimes known together as the Rupakaya (gZugs sku), lit. 'Form body'; all three kayas are sometimes considered aspects of a fourth body, called the Svabhavikakaya (Ngo bo nyid sku). [RY]
 
three kayas (sku gsum) are the dharmakaya (chos kyi sku), or absolute body; the sambhogakaya (longs spyod kyi sku), or body of enjoyment; and the nirmanakaya (sprul sku), or manifested body. They correspond respectively to the void, the luminous, and the compassionate aspects of a Buddha. [MR-ShabkarNotes]
 
Three kayas (sku gsum). Dharmakaya (chos sku) is the first of the three kayas, which is devoid of constructs, like space. The 'body' of enlightened qualities. Should be understood in three different senses, according to ground, path and fruition. Sambhogakaya (longs spyod rdzogs pa'i sku) means the 'body of perfect enjoyment.' In the context of the 'five kayas of fruition,' sambhogakaya is the semi-manifest form of the buddhas endowed with the 'five perfections' of perfect teacher, retinue, place, teaching and time which is perceptible only to bodhisattvas on the ten levels. Nirmanakaya (sprul sku) means 'emanation body' or 'form of magical apparition' and is the third of the three kayas. This aspect of enlightenment that can be perceived by ordinary beings.

There are three other aspects to wisdom: the wisdom that realizes relative truth, and that is perfect knowledge of the whole phenomenal world and the way it manifests; the wisdom that realizes absolute truth, and that knows the empty nature of all phenomena; and the wisdom that unerringly accomplishes the welfare of beings.

Three samadhis (ting nge 'dzin gsum). The samadhi of suchness, of illumination and of the seed-syllable. [RY]
 
Three samadhis (ting nge 'dzin gsum). The samadhi of suchness, of illumination and of the seed-syllable. The samadhi of suchness is to rest in the composure of the innate emptiness of all phenomena, as pointed out by one's root master, or simply to imagine that all things are empty like space. The samadhi of illumination is let natural compassion manifest like sunlight illuminating the sky, or simply to generate compassion for all the beings who fail to realize the nature of things. The samadhi of the seed-syllable is the innate unity of emptiness and compassion manifesting in the form of a syllable that is the 'seed' or source from which the deity and the entire mandala will appear during the practice. These three samadhis are the indispensible framework for the development stage of Vajrayana practice. In his Lamrim Yeshe Nyingpo, Padmasambhava says, "The main part begins with the profound and vast samadhis Which purify the manner of death, bardo, and rebirth: The great emptiness space of suchness is pure like the sky. Rest evenly in this space of the undivided two truths. Emanate the magic of compassion, an all-illuminating cloud of awareness, filling the space, radiant yet without fixation. The single mudra in the manner of a subtle syllable Is the causal seed which produces everything. Keep this changeless wisdom essence, manifests in space, one-pointedly in mind and bring its vivid presence to perfection. [RY]

three samadhis. The Thatness samadhi, the Manifestation samadhi and the Causal samadhi. They are represented by the syllables Om Ah and Hum. They are essentially emptiness and the Dharmakaya; compassion and the Sambhogakaya; the deity's symbolic form and the Nirmanakaya. They are also described, within this text, in the instructions on the outer practice, just before the description of Padmakara. [Peter Roberts]
 
three samadhis. These are described in detail in the longer commentary. In brief, they are the "thatness-samadhi" of great emptiness. The "Total-manifestation samdhi" of compassion and illusion, and the "Causual samadhi" of the mudra, the deity's body. They are represented respectively by the three syllables "Om ah hum"recited in the sadhana before the description of the empty nature of phenomena. Hrih is then recited before the description of the appearance of the deity. Some western editions of the sadhana have mistakenly taken the Hrih to be the last syllable of the preceding mantra of the emptiness of phenomena: dharmadhatu svabhava ah hum. [Peter Roberts]
