*Eight vehicles — [[theg pa brgyad]], of the [[nine vehicles]] these are the first eight, which depend on [[cause and effect]]. The nine vehicles comprise the three vehicles of the sutras — those of the [[shravakas]], the [[pratyekabuddhas]] and the [[bodhisattvas]] — and the six vehicles of [[Kriya]], [[Upaya]], [[Yoga]], [[Maha Yoga]], [[Anu Yoga]], and [[Ati Yoga]] tantras.
