Through meditating on the ''yidam'', the practitioner is enabled gradually to disengage from his or her illusory, personal "self" and identify more and more fully with the buddha-nature within. Each Tibetan school has its most characteristic ''yidams'', upon which most members of the school will meditate at one time or another.
