Nine Vehicles ([[theg pa dgu]])
*When the Buddhist teachings are classified according to their power, they are described as a vehicle (Skt. [[yana]]) or a series of hierarchical vehicles, arranged in the manner of the rungs of a ladder. Among these, the specific enumeration of nine vehicles or nine sequences of the vehicle (Skt. [[navayāna]]) accords with the standpoint of the [[rnying ma]] school, which systematises the Buddhist teachings according to the hierarchy of the three outer or causal vehicles (those of the [[pious attendants]], [[hermit buddhas]] and [[bodhisattvas]]), those of the three outer classes of tantra ([[Kriyatantra]], [[Ubhayatantra]] and [[Yogatantra]]), and those of the three inner classes of tantra ([[Mahayoga]], [[Anuyoga]] and [[Atiyoga]]).
