Although in some systems the Tantras are considered to fall into only four categories, the Kriyā, Caryā, Yoga, and Anuttarayoga, the rNying-mas accept three outer and three inner Tantras. The three outer Tantras are the Kriyā, Caryā, and the Yoga Tantras. The Kriyā Tantras emphasize purification of body and speech through ritual and cleansing activities, establishing a relationship between the deity and the practitioner similar to the relationship of master and servant. Realization can be gained within sixteen human lifetimes. The Caryā Tantras place emphasis on purification of body and speech through ritual and meditation, establishing a relationship between the deity and the practitioner similar to that between brothers or friends. Realization can be gained within seven human lifetimes. The Yoga Tantras have two divisions: outer Yoga Tantra (Upayoga) which emphasizes meditation on nonduality and the practice of the four seals (Mahāmudrā, Dharmamudrā, Samāyamudrā, and Karmamudrā); and inner Yoga Tantra (Anuttarayoga). The Anuttarayoga Tantras are themselves divided into three sections: Father, Mother, and Non-dual. The Father Tantras are concerned with the Developing Stage, and the Mother Tantras are concerned with the Perfecting Stage. Father Tantra may be related to Mahāyoga, Mother Tantra to Anuyoga, and Nondual Tantra to Atiyoga. Realization can be gained within three human lives. The inner Tantras include the Mahāyoga, Anuyoga, and Ātiyoga Tantras. The Mahāyoga Tantras are based on the sGyu section of the bKa'-ma; important texts are the root text (Guhyamūlagarbhatantra) and eighteen Mahāyoga tantras. Em- phasis is on visionary meditative experience. The Anuyoga Tantras are based on the mDo section of the bKa'-ma. The root text is the Gongs-pa 'dus-pa; important texts include the five Anuyogasūtras. Emphasis is on the unity of appearances and openness. The Ātiyoga Tantras are based on the Sems section of the bKa'-ma; these are the Absolute Perfection teachings. They are divided into three parts: the Sems-sde, or Mind section; the Klongs-sde, or Unending Experience of Being section; and the Man-ngag-gi-sde, or Guidance section which contains the sNying-thig, the 'Quintessential Instructions'.
