The perpetual torma (rtag gtor) which is kept for special durations, months and years, in the manner of shrine offering, can be of two types. The first is the sadhana torma (sgrub gtor), also called offering torma (mchod gtor), which is presented to the deities at the time of making offerings. The other is the mending torma (skang gtor) which is given in the manner of manifold sense-pleasures. [RY]

rgyun gtor, torma that always stays on the altar [IW]
