Dr. Barry Clark is the only Westerner to have undergone the complete theoretical and clinical training of a Tibetan doctor. For almost 20 years, he has studied, practiced, and taught the ancient science of Tibetan medicine. His primary teacher was Dr. Yeshe Donden, the personal physician to H.H. the Dalai Lama for eighteen years. Dr. Clark now lives and practices in New Zealand and frequently teaches and gives workshops in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia.
"I am happy that after more than ten years studying Tibetan
medicine, both in theory and practice under the tutelage of a
number of Tibetan physicians, Dr. Barry Clark has compiled The
Quintessence Tantras of Tibetan Medicine. In it, he presents clear
and accurate translations of the Root and Explanatory Tantras, two
works of such fundamental importance in the Tibetan medical system
that they are commonly memorised by medical students."—The Dalai
Lama
"Dr. Clark is very thorough and provides a wealth of information to
the relatively obscure field of Tibetan medicine. He also provides
an important translation of two of the principle tantras in Tibetan
medicine, making this book one of the finest in its
genre."—Explorations
