Tibetan Healing MandalaHealing is the main focus of Lama Lobsang's work, and he has maintained a daily practice of Medicine Buddha for several years. The Tibetan Healing Mandala is a beautiful healing ceremony that includes Medicine Buddha meditation as well as traditional pujas (prayer ceremonies) for purification, protection, healing and long life; torma offerings; vibrational healing using sound and crystals; and energy medicine. The Medicine Buddha helps to purify the karma from which illness arises, transforms our pain, and brings healing to all beings. Lama Lobsang demonstrates his techniques for healing body, mind and spirit using energy medicine such as reiki, crystals, and healing sound. Workshop participants share healing sessions with each other and in groups. Please refrain from eating meat, onions or garlic on the day of the Medicine Buddha ceremony. Please also refrain from the use of fragrances for the comfort of others. Learn more about Medicine Buddha and the Tibetan Healing Circle at www.lamalobsang.com.
