Vima Nyingthig


Vima Nyingthig (Tibetan: བི་མ་སྙིང་ཐིག་Wylie: bi ma snying thig), "Seminal Heart of Vimalamitra", is one of the two "seminal heart" (Tibetan: སྙིང་ཐིགWylie: snying thig) collections of the menngagde cycle Dzogchen, the other one being "Seminal Heart of the Dakini" (mkha' 'gro snying thig).
