View source for Three sources of the Dzogchen teachings

'''Three sources of the Dzogchen teachings''' (Tib. བསྟན་པའི་བཙས་གསུམ་, [[Wyl.]] ''bstan pa'i btsas gsum'') — three kinds of naturally occurring manifestations of enlightened form, speech, and mind that are present in our world as long as the [[Dzogchen]] teachings endure. When the teachings die out in our realm, these manifestations will vanish and appear in other realms.<ref>Richard Barron, in ''A Marvelous Garland of Rare Gems: Biographies of Masters of Awareness in the Dzogchen Lineage'', by [[Nyoshul Khenpo]], translated by Richard Barron (Junction City: Padma Publishing, 2005)</ref>
