'''Three authentics''' (Tib. ཚད་ལྡན་གསུམ་, ''tseden sum'', [[Wyl.]] ''tshad ldan gsum'') — the three authentic factors which must come together in order for the introduction to the [[nature of mind]] to take place:

#the authentic [[blessing]]s of the master (''bla ma byin rlabs tshad ldan'')
#authentic [[devotion]] of the student (''slob ma mos gus tshad ldan'')
#authentic instructions of the lineage (''brgyud pa'i gdams ngag tshad ldan'')
