Dzogchen 1. (rdzogs pa chen po, Skt. mahasandhi). Also known as Great Perfection and Ati Yoga. The highest teachings of the Nyingma School of the Early Translations. In this world the most well known human lineage masters are: Garab Dorje, Manjushrimitra, Shri Singha, Jnanasutra, Vimalamitra, Padmasambhava and Vairochana.

The scriptures are contained in the tantras of the Three Sections of Dzogchen: Mind Section, Space Section and Instruction Section. The first two were brought to Tibet chiefly by Vairochana while the Instruction Section was mainly transmitted by Vimalamitra and Padmasambhava. In addition, numerous Dzogchen termas were concealed by these masters and revealed through the following centuries. The lineage of teachings is embodied in the oral instructions one receives personally from a qualified master and holder of the Dzogchen lineage. [ZL] [RY]
Dzogchen 2. The Tibetan historian Guru Tashi Tobgyal elaborates in his Ocean of Wondrous Sayings about Padmasambhava's specific lineage of Dzogchen in the following way: "The great master is of the same nature as the infinite number of buddhas of the three kayas and does therefore not depend upon the concept of linear transmission. He is indivisible from the buddhas and the pure realms of the three kayas. However, in accordance with how other people perceive, Padmasambhava is not only the master of the numberless tantras of Vajrayana but possesses a unique short lineage of mastery over the profound topics of Nyingtig, the Luminous Great Perfection of the definitive meaning, entrusted to him by the three masters Garab Dorje, Manjushrimitra and Shri Singha. In particular, Padmasambhava acted upon a prophesy from Vajra Varahi and then received detailed teachings from Shri Singha. [ZL] [RY]

Diamond-hard resolutions - As explained by H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, "unswerving determination" means that no matter what our parents, friends, or anyone else may think or say, no matter what adverse conditions may be, nothing can deter us from our resolve to practice the Dharma. "Indifference to what others may think of you," means that once we have achieved our goal--to practice Dharma--even if people have a poor opinion of us, criticize us for "wasting our time," or slander us, we should not care about it in the least. The "vajra of wisdom" is the awareness of the ultimate truth, which should accompany us at all times. See also Shabkar's Beneficial Moon (chos bshad gzhan phan zla ba), fols. 148-9.
