Introduction to the Comparison of Traditional Chinese Medicine (T.C.M. or Traditional Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture) with Indo-Tibetan Buddhist and Hindu Ayurveda and Tibetan Medicine (Traditional Ayurvedic Medicine - T.A.M.).

These Hi-Def HDTV videos and the MP3 audio files are the first in a 3 trimester unit (45 class hours long) series of lectures aimed and comparing, contrasting and synthesizing the 2500 year old practice of Chinese Medicine (Zhong Yi or TCM) with the 2500 year old Indian Ayurveda and 1300 year old Tibetan Ayurveda systems (TAM). The goal of this lecture program is to assist the student in seeing and understanding their vast commonalities in both theory (concepts) and practice (clinic).

This rarely presented synthesis of the healing wisdom of these three great cultures (China, India and Tibet) will not only compare-contrast the theory of these two time-honored healing systems, but more importantly, will examine in detail the clinical practice aspects -- both herbal connections (Indian, Tibetan and Chinese herbs and minerals) and acupressure (Marmas in Ayurvedic Sanskrit) with acupuncture in the Chinese system.

We examine the three doshas (Tridosha - Vata-Pitta-Kapha) relationship to major concepts in Chinese Medicine that are often spoken of by acupuncturists to their patients. Some of these relationship comparisons include:
1. Vata Dosha (Space and Air - Wind, Cold, Qi [Prana in Ayurvedic Sanskrit]),

2. Pitta Dosha (Fire and Water - Spleen Qi [Jathar Agni in Sanskrit], Heat, Damp-Heat, Blood [Rakta Dhatu in Sanskrit], and Yang),

3. Kapha Dosha (Water and Earth - Phlegm-Mucous [Ama in Sanskrit], Damp-Cold, Jing Qi [Ojas in Sanskrit] and Yin).

Commentary on and Lectures from the ancients texts of Indo-Sino-Tibetan Medicine: Chinese Classic of the Yellow Emperor - Huang Di Nei Jing (~200 B.C.), Shang Han Lun (~150 A.D. traditional Chinese: 傷寒論; pinyin: Shāng Hán Lùn), Divine Farmers Materia Medica (~150 A.D. The Divine Farmer's Herb-Root Classic (traditional Chinese: 神農本草經; pinyin: Shénnóng běncǎo jīng) with Charaka of Patanjali (~200 B.C.), Sushruta of Nagarjuna (~200 A.D.), Astanga Hridayam of Vagbhata (~700 A.D.) and the "Four Tibetan Medical Tantras" (~800 A.D. "rGyud - bzhi" in Tibetan, pronounced "Ju Shee" --- "Si-Bu-Yi-Dian in Mandarin --- in Sanskrit it is called the "Amrta-hrdaya-astanga-guhyopadesa-tantra" or Amrita Hridaya Astanga Guhyopadesha Tantra)

Be sure you listen to all of the preliminary lectures (usually 30 minute long for each video or audio) found at:
http://www.archive.org/details/TCM401_Ayurvedic_Chinese_Medicine_001_Comparison
If not, you will be lost and confuse the context of this video.
Then, be sure you also watch - listen to the next 30 minute long lecture after this one. It is found at:
http://www.archive.org/details/TCM401_Ayurvedic_Chinese_Medicine_003_Comparison

If not, you will miss out on the foundation explanations of 1. Vata, 2. Pitta and 3. Kapha Doshas and their subtypes and their comparison-contrast with the Chinese Medicine concepts of 1. Qi - Wind - Cold - Yin Deficiency; 2. Yang - Spleen-Qi - Heat - Damp-Heat - Blood - Excess; and 3. Yin - Fluids - Phlegm-Mucous - Damp-Cold - Jing Qi. This first three videos are required preparations lectures for the more advanced and clinical oriented lectures that compare the two countries herbal and acupressure-puncture systems.
The more advanced lectures after these initial 3 videos classes (listed above) provide a detailed introduction that builds on these basics by focusing on diagnosis of Prakruti (genetic constitution of vata-pitta-kapha compared with modern Chinese Five Element typing) and Vikruti (imbalance of three doshas of:

1. VATA -- Space-Air Elements -- Movement and Catabolism -- Organs like colon - large-intestine - triple-warmer-circulation - Mind (Prana Vayu in Sanskrit),
2. PITTA -- Fire-Water Elements -- Digestion and Metabolism -- Organs like liver-gallbladder - small-intestine - Mind (Sadhaka Pitta), and
3. KAPHA -- Water-Earth Elements -- Growth and Anabolism -- Phlegm-Fat-Minerals - Organs like lungs-stomach-heart-kidneys-urinary-bladder - Mind (Tarpaka Kapha).

compared with imbalances of:

1. QI -- Wind - Cold - Yin Deficiency - TCM Element Metal;
2. YANG -- Spleen-Qi - Heat - Damp-Heat - Blood - Excess - TCM Elements Fire and Wood; and
3. YIN -- Fluids - Phlegm-Mucous - Damp-Cold - Jing Qi - TCM Elements Water and Earth).

“Om Namo Bhagavate Bhaisajya Guru Vaidurya Prabaha Rajaya Tathagataya Arhaté Samyaksam Bodhi Tadyata Om Bhaisajé Bhaisajé Bhaisajya Samudgaté Svaha.”
Namo Four-Unlimited-Minds - Four Immeasurables - Four-Far-Reaching-Attitudes - Namo Chatur- Maha-Brahma-Viharas- great loving-kindness (Namo Maha Maitri), great compassion (Namo Maha Karuna), great sympathetic joy (Namo Maha Mudita), and great renunciation-detachment-equanimity (Namo Maha Upeksha).


The Four immeasurable Thoughts
Namo Maha Upeksha: How wonderful it would be if all sentient beings were to abide in equanimity (Maha Upeksha), free from hatred and attachment, not holding some close and others distant.
May they abide in equanimity. I myself will cause them to abide in equanimity.
Please, guru-deity, bless me to be able to do this.

Meditate briefly on tong-len (exchanging self for others), taking on all the disturbing emotions (tri-kleshas - three poisons of vata windy anxiety raga klesha, pitta fiery anger dvesha klesha, kapha sticky muddy-muddled ignorance moha klesha) of sentient beings and giving them to your self-cherishing thought, thus destroying it.

Namo Maha Mudita: How wonderful it would be if all sentient beings had happiness and the causes of happiness.
May they have happiness and its causes. I myself will cause them to have happiness and its causes.
Please, guru-deity, bless me to be able to do this.

Meditate briefly on tong-len (exchanging self for others), transforming your body into a wish-granting jewel (chittamani) that gives every sentient being every kind of temporal and ultimate happiness that they desire and need.

Namo Maha Karuna: How wonderful it would be if all sentient beings were free from suffering and the causes of suffering.
May they be free from suffering and its causes. I myself will cause them to be free from suffering and its causes. Please, guru-deity, bless me to be able to do this.
Meditate briefly on tong-len (exchanging self for others), taking on the sufferings and causes of suffering of all sentient beings.

Namo Maha Maitri: How wonderful it would be if all sentient beings were never separated from the happiness of higher rebirth and liberation. May they never be separated from these. I myself will cause them never to be separated from these. Please, guru-deity, bless me to be able to do this.

Meditate briefly on tong-len (exchanging self for others), giving all one's merits of past, present, and future and their results, including enlightenment, to all sentient beings.

LC 4 For the sake of all mother sentient beings, I shall become a guru-deity (Bodhisattva or Buddha)
And place all sentient beings In the supreme state of a guru-deity. (3x)
Meditate here on generating special bodhichitta in order to enter into the practice of Mantra - Highest Yoga Tantra (Maha Anuttara Tantra).


Generating Special 'Bodhichitta.
LC 5 For the sake of all mother sentient beings I shall quickly, quickly, in this very life, Realize the state of a primordial guru-yidam Buddha
(1. Namo Tathagata Kulaya: Namo Vairochana [Vairocana 吠路者那, 毘盧舍那] - Nishyanda-Shakyamuni [Śākya-muni 釋迦如來, 釋迦牟尼, Śākyamuni Tathāgataḥ 釋迦如來];

LC 6 I shall free all mother sentient beings from suffering And place them in the great bliss of Buddhahood; Therefore, I shall now practice The profound path of guru-yidam yoga.


Dissolve and absorb the refuge merit field and meditate on the three kayas (Om-Ah-Hum -- 1. OM Dharma-Kaya - Dharma-Dhatu - Tathagata-Garbha - Buddha-Matrix, 2. AH Sambhoga-Kaya - Reward Body - Enjoyment Body, 3. HUM Nirmana-Kaya - Transformation Body)

"The Dharani true words Nan Ya Hung (Om Ah Hum) are Vairochana, Amitabha and Akshobhya Medicine Buddha. The Dharma, Reward and Transformation bodies' three great meanings: All sages and worthies of the ten directions come forth from these." (From Ven. Master Hsuan Hua's Shurangama Commentary) OM AH HUM HA HO HRI

Because I, the deities, the field of merit, and all other phenomena are imputations (merely labeled - shunyata) on dependent arisings (pratityasamutpada), everything becomes empty having the true nature of selflessness (anatman), free from the four extremes such as eternalism, nihilism, and so forth.

OM SVABHAVA SHUDDHA SARVA DHARMA SVABHAVA SHUDDHO HAM
OM SHUNYATA JNANA VAJRA SVABHAVA ATMAKO HAM

Pause to meditate here on emptiness.
Then arise in the form of Medicine Buddha (Bhaisajya Guru)
or as whatever highest yoga tantra deity you have been initiated into.


LC 1 From within great bliss (Maha Sukha Samvara), I arise as a guru-deity.
From my clear body, masses of light rays radiate into the ten directions,
Blessing the world and its beings.
All becomes perfectly arrayed with only infinitely pure qualities.
