Visualization (
dmigs.pa). An essential component of
meditation in Tibetan Buddhism. Though it has been linked with
Theravādin nimitta practice, visualization does characterize
Vajrayāna as a step away from
Hīnayāna and other forms of
Mahāyāna meditation which rely to a great extent on awareness (
samatha) and insight (
vipassanā). Principal subjects for visualization are
maṇḍalas and deities, and to be able to visualize them well means to be able to see their every detail as indistinguishable from common reality—a feat said to require at least one lifetime of total devotion to the skill. Visualization has four stages: projection, which is the creation of the appearance; pride, which is the identification of the self with that which is visualized; recollection of purity, which is the contemplation of the meaning of the practice and the nature of the deity; absorption, which is the reintegration of the deity into the
yogin.
