Four doors of secret mantra practice (Tib. གསངས་སྔགས་ཀྱི་སྒོ་བཞི་, Wyl. gsangs sngags kyi sgo bzhi):

  1. The door of recitation, for genuine visualization.
  2. The door of secret mantra, for invoking the wisdom mind.
  3. The door of samadhi, for focusing one-pointedly.
  4. The door of ritual mudras, for conveying symbolic meaning.


Alternatively:-

The verbal gate of utterance is to remind of the ultimate.
The secret gate of mantra is to invoke the samayas.
The mental gate of samadhi is to keep one-pointed focus.
The playful gate of mudra is to link gesture with meaning.[1]
