The Bka’ brgyud lineage tradition of Nā ro … The Bka’ brgyud lineage tradition of Nā ro pa (c.956-1040), Mar pa lo tsā ba chos kyi blo gros (1002/1012-1097), and Sgam po pa rin chen dpal (1079-1153) is broadly characterized by the transmission tradition of tantric teachings and practices outlined in Nā ro pa’s six doctrines (''nā ro’i chos drug''). This tantric framework along with direct pointing-out instructions (''ngo sprod kyi gdams pa'') to the nature of one’s mind (''sems kyi rang bzhin'') within the context of Mahāmudrā teachings are the primary methods to liberation employed by Bka’ brgyud practitioners. The doctrine of luminosity (''’od gsal ba'') is fundamental to both methods since the nature of one’s mind is pointed out as luminosity and the yogic practice of inducing meditative states where one is able to recognize luminosity is a central doctrine for Nā ro pa’s tantric system, especially during the time of sleep (''gnyid kyi ’od gsal''). These methods eventually become synthesized into a cohesive soteriological program, as exemplified by instructions on merging ignorance (''gti mug'') and luminosity as found within Bka’ brgyud merging (''bsre ba'') literature, the focus of this study.
