the Ninma doctrine had its origin in Guru-chho Wan. The kind of 
costume, now known by the name of TJrgyan - Sahorma , is said to have been 
introduced by Cliho Wan, who discovered some of Padma’s works and 
flourished at a subsequent date and was a Teuton (discoverer of sacred 
volumes.) 
There are nine princi 
a) Nan-tho (4) Kriya (7) Kyepa Maha-yoga 
(2) Itan-gyal (5) Upa (8) Lun Anu-yoga 
(8) Chyan-sem (6) Yoga (9) Dsog-chhenpo Atiyoga. 
The first three divisions were delivered by the Nirmanakaya-S'akya 
Muni (Buddha S'akya Simha) and are called the general or common yanas. 
The second three were delivered by Sambhogakaya-Vajra Sattva. 
They are called the external Tantra-yanas or Bahya tantra-yanas. 
The last three are attributed to Dharmakaya-samanta Bhadra or 
Kuntu Ssanpo. They are called the u Anuttura” antara-yana-traya (ac¬ 
cording to the Ninmapa school). Kuntu Ssanpo is the great and supreme 
Buddha, while Yajradhara is the Chief Buddha in the Gelugpa school. 
Again Vajra Sattva is second in the Ninma school, and S'akya Simha, being 
an incarnate Buddha, holds the third place. 
Of the Bahya (external) Tantra SYeni and Antara (internal) Tantra 
SYeni, the external ritual or Kriya tantras were delivered by Buddha S'akya 
Simha himself. The “Upa” or Karma tantra and Yoga tantras were 
delivered by. Buddha Vairochana, one of the five Pancha Jati Buddhas. 
The Antara (internal) or Anuttara tantras were delivered by Vajra Dhara 
(D’orje-chhan) from his celestial mansion of “ Chlio-Juii-Yanpa,” the 
spacious mansion of Dharma-dhatu. 
The Anuttara yana was taught by' Dbarmakaya Samanta Bhadra, 
(Kuntu Ssanpo) in his self-created form of Sambhoga Kaya. When 
seated in one of the purest of Bodhisattva JBhumis at great ease, by his 
omniscience, he taught incessantly in four times, 34 without error and falling 
into fallacy.

(3.) Nambar-Ned-ki-yese. 
(4.) Sosor-togpai-yese.
