མ་རྒྱུད་རྩ་རླུང་གཏུམ་མོའི་ལག་ལེན། སྒྲུབ་གྲྭ་མཁན་པོ་ཚུལ་ཁྲིམས་བསྟན་འཛིན། This video shows Drubdra Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin demonstrating the tsalung, tummo & thrulkhor movements and breathing from Yungdrung Bön Mother Tantra. It accompanies a new richly illustrated practice manual, the first of its kind, with clear, full colour computer graphics showing the visualisation for channels, chakras, symbols and deities. The illustrations have been prepared in close collaboration with Drubdra Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin, Abbot of Meditation School at Triten Norbutse Bönpo Monastery, Kathmandu, Nepal, and each detail has been checked against the Magyu texts and verified by Yongdzin Lopön Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche. THE BOOK CAN BE ORDERED HERE: ABOUT THE BOOK “Magyu Tsalung & Tummo“ is the first such detailed and richly illustrated manual for the ancient practice of yoga of winds, channels, inner heat and physical exercises. Here, Drubdra Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin teaches a text extracted from the Mother Tantra of Yungdrung Bön, the spiritual tradition of Tibet which stems from the Central Asian Buddha Tönpa Shenrab Miwo who predates the more widely known Indian Buddha Shakyamuni by thousands of years. While these techniques were previously reserved for those initiated into the Mother Tantra, Drubdra Khenpo has decided to share his daily practice with a wider audience because these methods have the potential to bring profound benefit not only for the development of meditation but also for health. The tsalung and tummo techniques explained in detail here can be practised safely, but it is advisable to receive scriptural authorisation and further instructions from the master in order to avoid common pitfalls and further develop your practice. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Drubdra Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin was born in Yetha in the Hor region of East Tibet, in 1968 to a Bönpo family of nomadic cattle herders. He entered Lungkar Monastery at the age of nineteen, then the Menri Monastery in Central Tibet six years later. In 1993 he joined Triten Norbutse Monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal, where he studied Sutra, Tantra and Dzogchen with his root Master Yongdzin Lopön Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche. In 2001 he obtained his Geshe degree (PhD) there. In 2002 Tsultrim Tenzin was appointed by Yongdzin Rinpoche as the Abbot of the Meditation School in Triten Norbutse. Since then he has been teaching Dzogchen in the meditation school and other subjects in the dialectic school. Alongside teaching, Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin Rinpoche has been practising Dzogchen meditation and Magyu tsalung, thrulkhor and tummo for two hours every morning. He sometimes travels to Tibet, China, Japan, Europe and England to teach Bönpo Dzogchen, Tantra and tsalung.
