The term dgongs pa is the honorific form of bsam pa, which means "thought" or "intention." However, according to Gangteng Tulku Rinpoché, in the context of these teachings it is the honorific form of lta ba, which means "perspective" or "view." The lineage is so designated because the enlightened view of all the buddhas of the three times is of one taste in the absolute space of phenomena. See VE 1, GD 179. +

This term is unique to the Great Perfection tradition, referring to the state of enlightenment. It is like a "vase," for, as the sole bindu, it encompasses the whole of saṃsāra and nirvāṇa, while transcending the three times. It is called "youthful," for it is not subject to aging or degeneration, and it is called a "kāya," for it is the aggregate of all the inexhaustible enlightened body, speech, mind, qualities, and activities of all the buddhas. Its six characteristics are that it is (i) superior to the ground, (i) appearing as one's own essential nature, (3) discerning, (4) liberated in activity, (5) not emerging from anything else, and (6) dwelling in one's own ground. See CM 396,446; GD148-49; VE 331
Alternately, according to the dictionary Bod rgya tshig mdzod chen mo (p. Z43z), this refers to the awareness of Samantabhadra, which is of the oceanic nature of the kāyas and facets of primordial consciousness, with six qualities: (1) externally luminous consciousness is withdrawn into itself, and the great, internally luminous, original absolute space of awareness of the ground appears to itself; (i) it transcends the ground; (3) it differentiates; (4) it is liberated upward; (5) it arises from nothing else; and (6) it dwells in its own place. +
