The second vehicle makes the third more clear, and so on. Then after slowly progressing through the vehicles like this, when you reach atiyoga, the great perfection, you can see why this atiyoga is so profound, so unique. When you look at mahayoga you can see why practicing mahayoga helps the practice of anuyoga, but also how anuyoga has more subtle practices and why it is so important. The different yanas are not totally separate; they are all linked and when you study and practice the different views, meditations, conducts, and fruitions in stages like this, then slowly slowly you can come to see and understand these things.
In presenting these nine yanas, I have chosen many different texts and tried to put some of the different teachings, trainings, and practices I have received into each of the different yanas. Some are texts by Indian panditas. Some are texts by Tibetan mahasiddhas, and some are words of the Buddha himself. Most importantly, you need to study the texts and their meaning, contemplate that meaning, meditate, and also do the specific sadhana practice for each yana. This is something that is very unique about the nine yanas teachings given in this series of books: you have a specific sadhana for each yana with a specific mantra, a specific thangka, and so on. These nine yana sadhanas are not something that I made up; they are called the Rigsum Nyingtik in Tibetan (the Heart Essence of the Three Enlightened Families), and are a branch teaching of the Three Sections of the Great Perfection, a very famous text revealed by the supreme terton Chokgyur Lingpa. The three protectors—all of the buddhas’ compassion manifest in the form of Avalokiteshvara, all of the buddhas’ wisdom manifest in the form of Manjushri, and all of the buddhas’ enlightened power manifest in the form of Vajrapani—are the main deities in these nine yanas sadhanas and their form changes in each of the yanas. For example, in the shravakayana, the three protectors are in the form of arhats.
So I hope you can finish the shravaka and pratyekabuddhayanas within two years, spending one year on each.
The bodhisattvayana will probably take at least two years, because there are so many different texts to study. The outer tantras of kriya, upa, and yoga should be able to be finished within one or two years. Then you will spend at least two years on mahayoga, at least another two or three years on anuyoga, and then on atiyoga your whole life.
