'''Khandro Nyingthig''' ([[mkha' 'gro snying thig]]). A [[Terma]] revealed by [[Padma Ledreltsal]] that contains [[Dzogchen]] teachings from the lineage of [[Padmasambhava]] and [[Yeshe Tsogyal]].

Two groupings of texts form the core of the Khandro Nyingthig cycle: [[The Six Tantras of Liberation through Wearing]] ([[btags grol rgyud drug]]) and the [[Three Testaments of the Buddha]] ([[sangs rgyas kyi 'das rjes gsum pa]]). The former are the root tantras of the Khandro Nyingthig. The latter contains a series of three short texts with instructions on the Great Perfection given by Vajradhara to the master [[Garab Dorje]].
 
In addition to those written by Longchenpa himself, important commentaries on the Khandro Nyingthig were written by [[Terdak Lingpa]] and the third [[Dzogchen Rinpoche]], [[Ngedon Tendzin Zangpo]].
 
Khandro Nyingtig means ''Heart Essence of the Dakinis''. A profound collection of Dzogchen teachings transmitted through Padmasambhava to [[Princess Pema Sal]], [[King Trisong Deutsen]]'s dying daughter, at [[Samye Chimphu]].
