Upcoming Public Talks:
Flowers of the Internal Organs
How the sense organs and internal organs are related in Tibetan medicine
Friday, December, 4th, 7-9pm EST
Tibetan medicine considers that each of the five sense organs are connected to specific internal organs. Therefore in Tibetan medical diagnostics, the sense organs are observed in order to diagnose problems with the internal organs. The Tibetan doctor ascertains how the sense organs are functioning and how they appear in order to collect more information on the state of the internal organs with which they are connected. Likewise, problems with the sense organs can also often be healed by treating the internal organ with which they are connected.

There she studied with Khenpo Troru Tsenam and Khenpo Tsultrim Gyaltsen, two of Tibet's foremost physicians who have been credited with the revival of Tibetan Medicine within Tibet under Chinese rule. Menpa Wangmo had the exceptional opportunity to undergo extensive clinical training with Khenpo Troru Tsenam after her graduation. Thereafter, she dedicated many years of work as a Tibetan physician in Eastern Tibet, where she collaborated on and directed projects for A.S.I.A.
