As the spiritual leader of Tibet, His Holiness the Dalai Lama has
captured the attention and admiration of the world through his
wisdom. This jewel of a book offers some of his most helpful
insights on daily living, inner peace, compassion and justice - for
all of us in these troubled times.
In the shamanic world-view of Tibet, the five elements of earth,
water, fire, air, and space are accessed through the raw powers of
nature and through non-physical beings associated with the natural
world. In the Tibetan tantric view, the elements are recognized as
five kinds of energy in the body and are balanced with a program of
yogic movements, breathing exercises, and visualizations. In these
Dzogchen teachings, the elements are understood to be the radiance
of being and are accessed through pure awareness. Healing with
Form, Energy, and Light offers the reader healing meditations and
yogic practices on each of these levels. Tenzin Rinpoche's purpose
is to strengthen our connection to the sacred aspect of the natural
world and to present a guide that explains why certain practices
are necessary and in what situations practices are effective or a
hindrance. This is a manual for replacing an anxious, narrow,
uncomfortable identity with one that is expansive, peaceful, and
capable. And the world too is transformed from dead matter and
blind processes into a sacred landscape filled with an infinite
variety of living forces and beings.
