'''Heart Essence''' ([[snying thig]]). In general identical with the [[Instruction Section]] (man ngag sde]]), the third of three division of Dzogchen. In particular it refers to the [[Innermost Unexcelled Cycle of Heart Essence]] ([[yang gsang bla na med pa'i snying thig gi skor]]), the fourth of the four divisions of the Instruction Section according to the arrangement of Shri Singha. <br>

All lineages of the [[Innermost Essence]] passed through [[Shri Singha]] and continued in Tibet through his personal disciples, [[Padmasambhava]] and [[Vimalamitra]]. In the 14th century these two lineages passed through [[Rangjung Dorje]], the third Karmapa, and his close Dharma friend [[Longchen Rabjam]] (1308-1363), the latter of which systematized these teachings in his great body of writings. The [[Nyingtig]] teachings have also appeared through many other lines of transmission; for instance, each major [[tertön]] reveals an independent cycle of Dzogchen instructions. The practice of the innermost Heart Essence is continued to this very day.
