EXCELLENT

I have read the Tibetan Art of Living it is a rare treasure , a distillation by the author who has real understanding asnd spiritual acheivement. It is obvious in the hints of his training and effortless description of old Bon medicine and wisdom. It is a book shown to me by a professor at an american university and it is the real thing,I will encourage all students of differing types of Tibeyan wisdom to learn from the new and emerging spiritual master.

a masterrful work

Having taught Bon to many people in the East and West, this book shown to me by a student is a revelation of clarity.This young man has obvioysly been taught by learned people and his spiritual realisation is obvious. The west is fortunate to have such a treasure, I look closely to what the future may bring for him and his work. Dorjong Rimpoche, Tajit Bon Retreat, The Kingdom of Mustang

AN EXCELLENT INTRODUCTION TO BON MEDICINE AND CULTURE

A student of mine gave me this book for appraisal. It is both excellent and clear description of the oldest of the Bon spiritual traditions of medicine and culture. As a doctor in the Bon way and a married teacher of the three types of Bon,it brings complex ideas very simple. This book is of the early Bon not Yung Drung Bon of the monks, but there is much that is the same. It is a genuine book and has got much praise fromother Bon teachers. The teacher of the author, his clan is known to us who come from Amdo and it is a good guide to the first of early Tibetan culture-the author is a dood doctor in the Tibretan way of Bon medicine when I met him somes years ago in Germany at a conference.I give the author much blessing.Tsering Damchog, Nagpa Training School,Sikkim , India

A WONDERFUL TREASURE! BUY THIS BOOK!!!

Tibetan Buddhism is the best system of medicine. Unfortunately,there is no book on how to apply it in your life. Why, I don'tknow. Dr. Yeshe Dhondon, author of "Health Through Balance"and "Healing From the Source", gives us some scraps of applicableinformation. He was His Holiness the Dali Lama's personal physician. But only scraps. And we are without this great science...until now. This book is the breakthrough and the ITbook. Go out and buy a copy or three. The author is a practioner of this science. And he tells you how to be too.This won't be a very easy transition though. You will have to be patient. This is a really holistic approach! For example,the nutritive value of your food is greatly affected by whatmood you are in when you eat it. I know that the author is authentic in these regards because of a comparison with Dr. Dhonden's books. Tastes are important in dietary health. And he tells you how to balance that. In regards to the other chapters, "acceptance" is a critical element in health care.Acceptance of everything. So don't expect a "bim-bam" answer about everything. It's all a question of balance and will take some time getting used to. Like riding a bicycle for the first time. No. You don't have to be vegetarain. So some of you might feel good about that. I do hope that you buy this breakthrough book. And I do hope that the author continues with his good work. Thank you.
