*[[Heart Essence]]. In general identical with the [[Instruction Section]], the third of [[three divisions 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]]. 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 terton reveals an independent cycle of [[Dzogchen]] instructions. The practice of the innermost Heart Essence is continued to this very day [[RY]]
