Publisher: Lotus Press
This is one of the oldest exercises in the world, an exercise that is simple and unique. The `Tibetan Power Yoga` is what the Tibetan Lama Tsering Norbu calls this set of motions that has given the people from the Roof of the World physical vitality and mental power up into ripe old age since time immemorial. The Tibetans` deep wisdom and humorous composure are an expression of their daily spiritual practice. The path to this place is relatively easy to travel. The author shows us that profound words of wisdom can be found in Buddhism without the necessity of dedicating oneself completely to this religion. Like a red thread, the teachings of a wise, old monk run through the book. When we go through life with an open heart, many possibilities will open up for us: just as they did for Jutta Mattausch, who has recorded the feelings and changes she went through in the course of time while practicing the `Tibetan Power Yoga.` Here is an absorbing story set in distant Tibet, and yet could also take place within all of us anywhere in the world since it deals with the journey to the self. Whether you arrive at yourself and then perhaps also find yourself, depends on your willingness to open up... This completely undogmatic book presents the opportunity of approaching one of the world`s great religions in an entertaining and totally unconstrained way and letting yourself be touched by it.This is an absorbing story set in Tibet, and yet could take place within all of us anywhere in the world since it deals with the journey to the self.
