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. Dzogchen has two chief aspects: the lineage of scriptures and the lineage of teachings (dpe brgyud dang bka' brgyud). 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. 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 prophecy from Vajra Varahi and then received detailed teachings from Shri Singha. and later translation of the Great Perfection (rdzogs pa chen po snga gyur phyi 'gyur) This phrase refers to the Eighteen Major Scriptures of the Mind Section, a set of Dzogchen tantras taught by Shri Singha to Vairochana and Lekdrub of Tsang, as listed in chapter 14 and found in the Nyingma Gyūbum, vol. KA. Five of them were translated by Vairochana before his exile to Tsawarong, while the remaining thirteen were later translated by Vimalamitra and Yudra Nyingpo, hence the name. They are also known as the eighteen mothers and children of the Mind Section (sems sde ma bu bco brgyad). Mind Section (sems sde ma bu bco brgyad).)

Lochen Dharmaśrī explains, "To summarize, the development stage involves transforming impure appearances into pure ones and meditating on the mandala circle. In the completion stage, the aim is to realize the wisdom of bliss-emptiness." The latter, he continues, can be divided further into two approaches, the conceptual completion stage and nonconceptual completion stage. He writes, "In this stage, one either meditates conceptually on the energies, channels, and essences, or nonconceptually by absorbing oneself in reality." [SD 325] Ju Mipham summarizes this phase as follows, ''All the various forms of completion stage practice bring about the manifest appearance of pure wisdom by bringing the karmic energies into the central channel, though this may be brought about either directly or indirectly.'' [ON 417] either directly or indirectly.'' [ON 417])
