Pema Tseyi Nyingtik (Tib. པདྨ་ཚེ་ཡི་སྙིང་ཐིག, Wyl. pad+ma yi snying thig) — a mind terma revealed by Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, a practice of longevity based on Amitayus. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche first had a direct vision of the mandala of Amitayus related to this practice, arising from a lake in Dokham, while he was offering a ganachakra puja on the banks of the lake. Later, as he was circumambulating the meditation cave of Vairotsana at Pema Shelpuk, he had a dream in which Yeshe Tsogyal handed him a yellow scroll. Following Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö's guidance, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche put this cycle of teachings in writing and granted him the complete empowerments and practice instructions.

It should be noted that there is also a terma by Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo with the same name.


Rangjung Pemé Nyingtik (Tib. རང་བྱུང་པདྨའི་སྙིང་ཐིག་, Wyl. rang byung pad+ma'i snying thig), the 'Heart Essence of the Self-Born Lotus' — a mind terma of Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, a practice of the Three Roots. This was first revealed in Tibet when Khyentse Rinpoche was with Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö[1].

The revelation was kept secret and the texts were left at Mindroling monastery and later lost. Years later in exile in Nepal, Trulshik Rinpoche heard about this practice as he was receiving the oral transmission for the Kangyur from Khyentse Rinpoche and he requested Khyentse Rinpoche to reveal it again. They went to Yangleshö and after seven days of practice, Khyentse Rinpoche revealed the practice for a second time. Later, when a copy of the original text, which had been found in Tibet, was brought to Nepal it was found to be identical.

The visualization is as follows: One visualizes oneself as Hayagriva in union with Vajravarahi. At one's forehead is Pema Tötreng Tsal and the eight vidyadharas. At one's heart centre is Chemchok Heruka. At the navel is Vajravarahi and at the secret centre, Ekadzati.
