The Dharma Ocean training unfolds according to six progressive stages each of which is accomplished through a distinct body of practices. Each of these is referred to as a \u201cyana\u201d or \u201cvehicle\u201d, a Buddhist term meaning a developmental stage.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;\/the-training-and-the-path\/&#8221;
