The three kinds of perception (Tib. སྣང་བ་གསུམ་, Wyl. snang ba gsum) appear in the preliminaries for the Lamdré practice of the Sakya tradition:
- impure perception (Tib. མ་དག་པའི་སྣང་བ་, ma dag pa'i snang ba)
- mixed perception experienced by yogis through practice (Tib. རྣལ་འབྱོར་ཉམས་ཀྱི་སྣང་བ་, rnal 'byor nyams kyi snang ba)
- pure perception (Tib. དག་པའི་སྣང་བ་, dag pa'i snang ba)
