'''The Heart Essence of Chetsun''' - Chetsün Nyingtig ([[lce btsun snying tig]]
#redirect [[Chetsun Nyingtik]]
----
The Chetsün Nyingtig is one of the most important [[Dzogchen]] instructions, based on a transmission from [[Vimalamitra]]. [[Jamyang Khyentse]] had a vision of [[Chetsün Senge Wangchuk]] which inspired him to write the precious teaching known as [[Chetsün Nyingtig]]. Senge Wangchuk (11th-12th century) is among the lineage gurus in the Nyingtig transmission, which he received from his root guru, Dangma Lhüngyal ([[gnas brtan ldang ma lhun gyi rgyal mtshan]]), as well as directly from [[Vimalamitra]]. As a result of his high level of realization, his physical body transformed to a [[rainbow body]] at the time of death. In a later [[reincarnation]] as [[Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo]], he remembered the [[Dzogchen]] teachings which Senge Wangchuk had transmitted to the [[dakini]] Palgyi Lodrö and wrote them down as the terma [[Chetsün Nyingtig]], the 'Heart Essence of Chetsün.' The name Chetsün ([[lce btsun]]) means "noble tongued" - someone who never lied, slandered or gossiped.  [[RY]]
