Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche offers healing meditations and yogic practices based on the three levels of Bonpo shamanism, tantra and dzogchen. In the worldview of Tibetan Bon, the five elements of earth, water, fire, air, and space are accessed through the raw powers of nature and through the non-physical beings associated with the natural world. In the Tibetan tantric view, the elements are recognized as five kinds of energy in the body and are balanced with yogic movements, breathing exercises, and visualizations. In the higher teachings of dzogchen, the elements are understood to be the radiance of being and are accessed through pure awareness. This is a manual for replacing an anxious, narrow, uncomfortable identity with one that is expansive, peaceful, and capable - and the world too is transformed from dead matter and blind processes into a sacred landscape filled with a variety of living forces and beings. "There is more detailed and at the same time easily understood and useful information about the body and meditative practice here than in any other book I have seen. Spoken with an elegance that melts into your mind." Professor Anne Klein.
