WORLD ACCORDING TO RGYUD BZHI: THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF TIBETAN MEDICINE
This paper presents principles of traditional Tibetan medicine contained in rGyud bzhi, a renowned medical treatise of the 12th century. These principles refer to the structure and functions of human body, situations conducive to diseases, and methods of treatment. They are embedded in the larger system of Tibetan knowledge formed in the process of mixing local elements with Indian and Chinese influences.
