'''Six Yogas of Niguma''' (Tib. ནི་གུ་ཆོས་དྲུག, ''nigu chö druk'', [[Wyl.]] ''ni gu chos drug'') — These six inner yoga practices  originate from the Indian [[yogini]] [[Niguma]] and were transmitted to the yogini [[Sukhasiddhi]] and her Tibetan disciple [[Khyungpo Naljor]], founder of the [[Shangpa Kagyü]] school. These six doctrines have the same titles as the [[Six Yogas of Naropa]] but differ in the details of how they are practised. These teachings were also transmitted from the Shangpa Kagyü tradition to the [[Gelugpa]] school. The second Dalai Lama, [[Gendün Gyatso]], wrote a commentary to these six yogas called ''ni gu chos drug rgyas pa khrid yig''.
