In Tibetan Buddhism, the concept of gradual enlightenment is encapsulated in the Lamrim (Tibetan: ལམ་རིམ་), which means “Stages of the Path.” These are teachings that outline the stages of spiritual practice needed to progress toward बुद्धत्व Buddhahood. Starting from initial practices like taking refuge in the Three Jewels, Lamrim guides practitioners through increasingly advanced meditative practices, ultimately leading to the realization of emptiness and full enlightenment.
