The Nyingthig Yabshi was compiled by [[Longchenpa]] to condense the two primary lineages of [[Dzogchen]] practice in Tibet, those of [[Padmasambhava]] and [[Vimalamitra]]. Together, this collection of texts is considered the core teaching on the practice of [[Dzogchen]], and in particular the [[Heart Essence]] teachings of the [[Instruction Class]].
 
 
 
The teachings of the Padmasambhava's lineage are contained in two volumes and are referred to as the '''[[Khandro Nyingthig]]''' (Tib: mkha' 'gro snying thig. Longchenpa's commentaries on this cycle of teachings comprise three further volumes, which are known as the '''[[Khandro Yangthig]]''' (Tib: mkha' 'gro yang thig).
 
 
 
The teachings of the Vimalamitra's lineage are contained in four volumes, known as the '''[[Vima Nyingthig]]''' (Tib: [[bi ma snying thig]]. Longchenpa's commentaries on this cycle of teachings comprise two volumes, which are referred to as the '''[[Lama Yangthig]]''' (Tib: bla ma yang thig).
 
 
 
Longchenpa also wrote two volumes of commentary that relate to both lineages, entitle '''[[Zabmo Yangthig]]''' (Tib: zab mo yang thig).
