The Oral Instruction Tantra | Four Tantras of Tibetan Medicine
An age-old tradition rooted in established theories and expressed through a remarkable series of 5,900 verses, interwoven with rich metaphors and similes, Tibetan medicine reflects the wisdom of one of the world’s oldest and most pristine civilizations. Today, this profound knowledge is revealed to the world, offering invaluable insights for everyone.
Tibetan medicine is both an art and a science. It is an art in that it demonstrates how to live skillfully and harmoniously. It is a science as well, grounded in empirical evidence and practical application through debate and experimentation. Furthermore, it aligns with philosophical principles, particularly Buddhist philosophy, making it a comprehensive approach to addressing modern psychological and psychosomatic issues.
This multifaceted wisdom is encapsulated in the "Gyueshi," the cornerstone text of Tibetan Medicine. The Gyueshi comprises four tantras: Tsa Gyue (The Root Tantra), Shae Gyue (The Explanatory Tantra), Man Ngag Gyue (The Oral Instruction Tantra), and Chima Gyue (The Subsequent Tantra). The first two tantras lay the foundational principles of Tibetan Medicine, while the latter two focus on the classification of disorders and the practical aspects of diagnosis and treatment.
