For millennia, Tibetans have practiced secret techniques of healing. This book introduces the principles and practices of this ancient healing science, previously unavailable to English-speaking readers. Dr. Drungtso, head of the Tibetan Medical and Astrological Institute in Dharamsala, India, offers an in-depth analysis of Tibetan concepts of health and disease, diet and behavior, pulse and urine diagnosis, Tibetan medical history in both the Buddhist and pre-Buddhist eras, and the relationship between Tibetan medicine, Buddhist philosophy and astrology.
