'''Chö''' ([[Wyl.]] ''gcod'') (literally 'cutting'), also known as the accumulation of the [[kusulu]], is a practice, based on the [[prajnaparamita]], involving a visualization in which the physical body is offered as food to various guests, including evil forces or dangerous spirits, the purpose of which is to destroy or 'cut' the [[four maras]] and especially one’s own [[self-grasping|ego-clinging]]. Chö was introduced to Tibet by the Indian master [[Padampa Sangye]] and his Tibetan disciple, the [[yogini]] [[Machik Labdrön]].
