This is a synonym for Vajradhara, the Buddha as the teacher of tantras, and refers to seven constantly present characteristics:
:1. ''body of complete enjoyment'': Being endowed with the thirty-two marks and eighty features of complete enlightenment
:2. ''union'': Being in meditative union with consort
:3. ''great bliss'': Experiencing great bliss through the winds entering, abiding, and dissolving in the dhūtī
:4. ''no inherent nature'': Understanding the non-inherent nature of the mind dwelling in pure bliss
:5. ''unbroken continuum'': Never entering nirvana but remaining until the end of samsara
:6. ''filled with compassion'': Never straying from working for others by way of nonapprehending compassion
:7. ''unending'': An endless and continuous stream of enlightened activity +
Although bliss can occur on the sutra path, and even in the basic state before entering the path, this is not ''great bliss'', which has to be caused by bringing the winds in the central channel. Great bliss is brought to focus on emptiness to form the "union of bliss and emptiness." It is also known as ''innate bliss''. +
