Vima Nyingthig (Tibetan: བི་མ་སྙིང་ཐིག་, Wylie: bi ma snying thig), "Seminal Heart of Vimalamitra", in Tibetan Buddhism is one of the two "seminal heart" (Tibetan: སྙིང་ཐིག, Wylie: snying thig) collections of the menngagde cycle Dzogchen, the other one being "Seminal Heart of the Dakini" (mkha' 'gro snying thig).[1] Traditionally the teachings are ascribed to Vimalamitra,[2] but they were codified and collated by their Tibetan discoverers in the 11th and 12th century.[3] The main discoverer of the Vima Nyingthig was Zhangtön Tashi Dorjé.[4][5][6]
