Nyingtik Yabshyi (Wyl. snying thig ya bzhi) literally means the 'Four Parts of the Nyingtik'. It consists of the Vima Nyingtik, Lama Yangtik, Khandro Nyingtik and Khandro Yangtik. The Vima Nyingtik and Khandro Nyingtik are known as the 'mother' Nyingtik texts and the Lama Yangtik and Khandro Yangtik are known as 'child' texts, hence another common name for the collection which is the Four Mother and Child Sections of Nyingtik (Tib. nyingtik ma bu shyi; snying thig ma bu zhi).

Longchen Rabjam also composed the Zabmo Yangtik, which condenses the important pith-instructions of both Vima Nyingtik and Khandro Nyingtik.
