INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY FOR TRADITIONAL TIBETAN MEDICINE (IATTM) COURSES WITH DR. NIDA CHENAGTSANG

DREAM STUDIES in Traditional Tibetan Medicine

The study of dreams in Tibetan culture is very ancient. Dreams can be analysed in different ways: for religious purposes, for divination, or for medical purposes. Tibetan doctors have a well-developed understanding of the relationship between dreams and health; thus dreams are analysed from both a religious as well as a medical perspective. Both the Tantric spiritual tradition and Traditional Tibetan Medicine describe three basic components - Consciousness, the subtle rLung energies, and the chakras and channels - as being necessary for the manifestation of dreams.
