Fundamentals of Tibetan Medicine (Fourth Edition)
PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION The Fundamentals of Tibetan Medicine is one of the most popular and widely used publications on Tibetan Medicine available in English so far. This is credited to the contributions of the editorial teams of its successive editions. The first edition of the Fundamentals of Tibetan Medicine was published in 1981. It has remained one of the basic learning sources of Tibetan Medicine available in English, and due to an increasing interest in, and demand for, Tibetan Medicine and literature on the subject, in 1995 a second revised edition was published. In 1997 a third revised edition was published based on the existing material content, and the first part of the book...

Fundamentals of Tibetan Medicine
The first edition of the Fundamentals of Tibetan Medicine, published in 1981, has remained one of the most popular and widely used publications on Tibetan Medicine available in English. In 1995, a second revised edition was published in response to an increasing interest in Tibetan Medicine and a greater demand for literature on the subject. The need for a third revised edition was again felt and in 1996, the Director of Men-Tsee-Khang appointed us to expand and revise the book. However, due to our other Institutional responsibilities, we could not begin work on the project until the summer of 1997. We are pleased to bring out this book, started initially during the Directorship of Mr. Tseri...
Tibetan Buddhist Embryology - A Practical Guide to Everyone [Men-Tsee-Khang - སྨན་རྩིས་ཁང་།]
Tibetan Buddhist Medical Embryology—A practical guide to everyone discusses in detail the formation and development of human embryo from the perspective of Tibetan medicine and Buddhism. According to them, a new human being appears not merely in the result of conception but—as it is strongly emphasized—due to karmic relationship between parents and bardo consciousness, afflictive emotions and the presence of five elements which are indispensable causes and conditions of conception. In the mother’s womb, thirty eight different Loong energies play a key role in the development of child and during the gestation period, the shape of an embryo changes into three significant stages. Though...

Gangri Langtso (The college journal) 2013 [Men-Tsee-Khang-སྨན་རྩིས་ཁང་།]
Editor’s Note Dear beautiful readers, Year 2013 has begun with crackers and wishes just like another same ordinary year and the next day everything returned to the same routine like it did the earlier year. Did any of you even reflect and reminisced the time you had in year 2012 or even made resolutions for the New Year? May be yes or may be a big caps lock NO for some. For some it may be a year of optimism yet for some it is still the same old year with loans and labor. However, I always believed that the ultimate happiness of this beautiful life depends on how you commit yourself to move on from the odds and positively trying to keep up with the things you have been performing wonderfull...
A Concise Introduction To Tibetan Astrology [Men-Tsee-Khang-སྨན་རྩིས་ཁང་།]
Preface It was certainly the combination of a gigantic landmass, a small population and primarily the nomadic pastoral lifestyle which made the ancient Tibetan’s special awareness of their environment. From time immemorial, our ancestors have closely observed the movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and constellations, and have calculated time based on day, month and seasons. They forcasted the weather based on the nature of the wind, clouds, rainbows, appearance of the flora, behaviour of the fauna and being conscious of microscopic changes in other natural phenomena. These fine observations of nature formed the rich foundation on which Tibetan Astrology was later built upon. Founded on pr...

Gangri Langtso (The college journal) 2017 [Men-Tsee-Khang-སྨན་རྩིས་ཁང་།]
Editor’s Note Aren't we missing something deep down? Last time I met one of my class mates from my former school. We had a long chat to catch up with each other and other school mates. He had graduated from a high esteemed college and got a job in a good company. And from him I also came to know that many of our classmates were doing great with their personal lives in their own respective fields. He told me that with good jobs his life and some other mate's life are fully settled or safe by now in this competitive world. I was happy for them. Then we parted our ways. When I was walking through the crowed after a while, there was some kind of heaviness within deep down in my heart that both...
