The healing principle on which these exercises are based is the universal nature and omnipresent power envisioned in Mahayana Buddhism, yet open to those coming from any tradition. We can heal body and mind simply by allowing our own natural healing qualities to manifest: a peaceful and open mind, a loving and positive attitude, and warm, joyful energy in a state of balance and harmony. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReissued for its 30th anniversary, Tulku Thondup’s classic text invites readers to discover how our minds possess the power to heal pain and stress and to blossom into peace and joy by loosening the clinging attitudes that Buddhists call “grasping at self.” When we mentally grasp and emotionally cling to our wants and worries with all our energy, we lose our enlightened freedom and strength, only to gain stress and exhaustion, suffering and overexcitement, like the turbulent waves rolling on the surface of the ocean. But if we apply the mind’s healing power, we can heal not only our mental and emotional afflictions but physical problems as well. \u003ci\u003eThe Healing Power of Mind\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates that the true nature of our minds is enlightened and peaceful, as the depth of the ocean is calm and clear.\"Thondup's book is a rich survey of the healing resources inherent in Nyingma Buddhism. . . .
