'''Three lineages of transmission''' ([[Wyl.]] ''bka'i brgyud pa gsum'') — the three modes and stages of transmission of the three [[inner tantras]] of the [[Nyingma]] school, and in particular of the [[Dzogchen]] teachings.

#the '''mind direct transmission of the [[buddha]]s''' (Tib. ''gyalwa gong gyü''; Wyl. ''rgyal ba dgongs brgyud''): from the [[dharmakaya]] [[Samantabhadra]] to the [[sambhogakaya]] buddhas in the [[Akanishtha]] heaven, such as the [[buddhas of the five families]], and [[Vajrasattva]], and then to [[nirmanakaya]] buddhas such as the [[twelve teachers]].
#the '''sign transmission of the [[vidyadhara]]s''' (Tib. ''rigdzin da gyü''; Wyl. ''rig 'dzin brda brgyud''): from Vajrasattva to the first human Dzogchen master [[Garab Dorje]], through to  [[Padmasambhava]]. For the Dzogchen lineage, this includes masters such as [[Mañjushrimitra]], [[Shri Singha]], and [[Jñanasutra]]. 
#the '''oral transmission from special individuals''' (Tib. ''gangzak nyen gyü''; Wyl. ''gang zag snyan brgyud'')<ref>This lineage is also sometimes known as the '''oral transmission of the ascetics''' (Wyl. ''rnal 'byor snyan brgyud'').</ref>. In Tibet, the oral transmission of the Dzogchen teachings started with Padmasambhava, [[Vimalamitra]] and [[Vairotsana]], and has continued in an unbroken lineage to this day.
