Product Description

One of the world’s oldest unbroken spiritual traditions is that of the Bön people—the indigenous people of Tibet, whose teachings predate the arrival of Buddhism. These traditions have survived political persecution and upheaval thanks to the efforts of a handful of dedicated lamas such as Bön lineage holder Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche. Now with Tibetan Sound Healing, practitioners can connect to the ancient sacred sounds of the Bön practice—and through them, activate the healing potential of the natural mind. The Bön healing tradition invokes The Five Warrior Syllables—"seed" sounds that bring us to the essential nature of mind and release the boundless creativity and positive qualities that are fundamental to our natural consciousness. Through the medicine of sound, practitioners learn to clear obstacles on the level of the body, the energetic and emotional dimensions of being, and the spiritual consciousness. Through this integrated book and CD learning program, Tenzin Rinpoche gives users the tools to access wisdom and compassion and use the vibration of sacred sound to cultivate the healing power within the body’s subtle channels. Lama and Bön meditation master Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is renowned for his gift of rendering ancient texts in a warm and clear way to his Western readers. With Tibetan Sound Healing, he reveals the secrets of Bön sacred syllables and invites us to join him in sound to purify the body, connect with our inherent perfection and completeness, and to awaken spiritual virtue.

Tibetan Sounds for Life
Since I bought this item I have used it often for meditation and found it extremely helpful. It is easy to follow, it shuts off the thinking mind and there is a refreshed feeling afterwards. I had several friends listen to the CD and they were delighted with it. They have now decided to get it and to use it as their main meditation method. When I bought it even though I have meditated for years I knew nothing about the chakras. This gives one an experiential understanding of the chakras and helps one to open oneself up to the special experience. I absolutely recommend it for the beginner or the advanced meditation student.

This book teaches an active form of Tibetan healing with sound meditation
One can use the "Five Warrior Syllable" sounds and other sound meditation techniques taught in this book-with-CD for healing, to clear internal blocks your life,and to manifest realistic action steps to create change in your life.

By doing this daily practice, spiritual life and daily life are not kept separate, but form one transparent circle of doing and being.

I am new at practicing this active meditation, using the instructions in the book-and-audio CD (included), supported by my teacher Gabriel Rocco, a senior student of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche.

I find this daily practice powerful for me in making concrete action changes in the way I live my life, and healing (not curing) my experience with cancer.

You do not have to be Buddhist to understand or make use of the valuable sound meditation practice.

The author is a teacher in the Bon tradition of Buddhism, with a Center near Charlottesville, Virginia. They offer teaching workshops.

Powerful but simple sound healing tools for everyone
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche invites the reader into the realm of sound healing in the Tibetan Bon Buddhist tradition via the Five Warrior Syllables and the Tsa Lung Exercises. The combination of text and CD meditations aid the reader, especially one new to sound healing, to readily duplicate the sacred sounds while visualizing the intended effects of the sounds. The sounding of the Five Warrior Syllables in conjunction with their accompanying meditations aims straight at one's inner core and energetic channels. Their use clears mental, emotional and physical blockages and opens the energetic channels. As a result, one's true inner nature reveals itself and at the same time impacts the world at large. These Tibetan Bon seed syllables are powerful but simple tools to include in an ongoing sound healing practice or for introducing beginners to the healing benefits of incorporating sound into their daily life.
