Ju Mipham explains, "In this phase of practice, one relies primarily upon certain activities to force the arising of one's innate wisdom. This results in the swift attainment of the fruition. To be more specific, one practices by relying upon the six cakras to enact a process of blazing and melting. This, in turn, generates the wisdom of bliss." [ON 419]<br> The various practices associated with this path are found in the tantras of both the Nyingma School and the New Schools. Listing the practices found in the tantras of the New Schools, Jamgön Kongtrül writes, "The various classifications of subtle energies and the instructions on illusory body and luminosity are treated extensively and clearly in the ''Guhyasamaja Tantra'' and other Father Tantras. The classifications of energetic channels and essences, on the other hand, as well as the practices of yogic heat and karma mudra training, are treated clearly in Mother Tantras, cycles such as those of Hevajra and Cakrasaṃvara. The ''Vajrayoginī'' and ''Saṃvarodaya Tantras'' teach the trainings of dream practice and intermediate state, while transference is taught in the ''Samatā'' and ''Caturpīṭhamahāyoginī Tantras''. In particular, the classifications of the channels, energies, and essences and the various practices, including those of yogic heat and karma mudrā, are taught in great detail and very clearly in the nondual ''Kalacakra Root Tantra'' and its three main commentaries [including the famed ''Vimalaprabhā'']." [TK 4, 29] Patrul Rinpoche singles out the ''Tantra of the Perfect Secret'' and the ''Heruka Galpo Tantra'' as sources for these practices in the Nyingma School.
