Transliteration: lta stangs
<noun> Meaning "way of looking" in general and can be "to look in a certain manner". In the meditative tradition of Buddhism there are many different ways and types of looking e.g., the practices of the eight common siddhis have a series of ways of looking, usually translated as "gazes" or "yogic gazes", and རྫོགས་པ་ཆེན་པོ་ The Great Completion in particular uses the three ways of looking called ལྟ་སྟངས་གསུམ་ q.v. It is common practice to use "gaze" as a translation for this term but in some situations it would be better to render it either literally or with the noun "look" and to keep "gaze" for other words.
