*[[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 tert�n reveals an independent cycle of Dzogchen instructions. The practice of the innermost Heart Essence is continued to this very day [[RY]]

*[[Nyingtig]]. Vimalamitra united the two aspects of Innermost Unexcelled Section: the explanatory lineage with scriptures and the hearing lineage without scriptures and concealed them to be revealed in the future as the Nyingtig teachings renowned as [[Vima Nyingtig]], and also as the [[Secret Heart Essence of Vimalamitra]] ([[bi ma'i gsang ba snying thig]]). Longchenpa clarified them in his 51 sections of [[Lama Yangtig]]. [[Padmakara]]'s concealed his teachings on the [[Innermost Unexcelled Cycle]] to be revealed in the future as [[Khandro Nyingtig]], the [[Heart Essence of the Dakinis]]. Longchenpa also clarified these teachings in his [[Khandro Yangtig]]. These four exceptional sets of Dzogchen instructions are together with Longchenpa's additional teachings Zabmo [[Yangtig]], contained in his collection famed as [[Nyingtig Yabshi]] [[RY]]
