: Wisdom Experience: The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism

gtan tshigs khungs rdib pa'i sems phyogs (གཏན་ཚིགས་ཁུངས་རྡིབ་པའི་སེམས་ཕྱོག�) in Tibetan refers to “the area of mind which holds the result to be the mind’s point of origin� and represents one of the seven categories of the Mental Class (Semde or sems-sde) which represents one of the three Divisions of Atiyoga (Dzogchen).—Concerning the third the area of mind (gtan-tshigs khungs-rdib-pa'i sems-phyogs): By realising the truth which is uncontrived with respect to the ground, or the supreme mind-as-such, free from conceptual elaboration, the essence is liberated without being created, and its unimpeded expressive power is evenly diffused in a vast openness. There is no support for propensities, and so there is no ripening of either positive or negative attributes. This is held to be liberation in sameness, throughout the extent of ṃs and Ծṇa, by means of axioms [arising within] which concern the primordial emptiness of reality, its natural purity and great liberation from extremes
