('Phrul 'Khor): Ancient Tibetan Yogic Practices from the Bon Religion and Their Migration Into Contemporary Medical Settings1
BRILL Asian Medicine 3 (2007) 130-155 www.brill.nl/asme Magical Movement ('Phrul 'Khor): Ancient Tibetan Yogic Practices from the Bon Religion and their Migration into Contemporary Medical Settings1 M.A.Chaoul Abstract Magical movement is a distinctive Tibetan yogic practice in which breath and concentration of the mind are integrated as crucial components in conjunction with particular body move ments. Present in all five spiritual traditions of Tibet-though more prevalent in some than in others-it has been part of Tibetan spiritual training since at least the tenth century CE. This report describes some varieties of magical movement, and goes on to examine their application within conventional biomedical settings. In particular, a pilot study of the method's utility in stress-reduction among cancer patients is considered. Keywords Tibet, Bon, magical movement, mind-body practices, integrative medicine, meditation, cancer, rtsa rlung, 'phrul 'khor, Tibetan Yoga Focusing on the magical movement from the ancient Bon Great Complete ness or Dzogchen (rdzogs chen) tradition's Oral Transmission ofZhang Zhung (Zhang zhung snyan rgyud) 2 and its contemporary representatives and lineage- 1 Written in part on the anniversary ofTonpa Shenrab's passing away and enlightenment. 2 Chandra and Namdak 1968. The magical movement chapter is the 'Quintessential Instruc tions of the Oral Wisdom of Magical Movements' ('phrul 'khor zhal shes man ngag, hereafter Quintessential Imtructiom), pp. 631--43. Usually translated as 'Oral Transmission' and lately too as 'Aural Transmission' (Kvaerne 1996, and following him, Rossi 1999). Although I am using 'oral transmission' for snyan rgyud, I find 'aural' or 'listening' to be more accurate renderings of snyan.

Unless otherwise stated or indicated, the work is all my own, and has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification. Signed Abstract This thesis presents a study of the Bonpo in Dolanji, a Tibetan refugee settlement in North India. The Bonpo are a distinctive religious minority within the Tibetan refugee population. In the 1950s, Chinese Communist forces occupied Tibet and, in 1959, the fourteenth Dalai Lama fled Tibet into exile in India. In 1960, the Tibetan Government-in-Exile was established in Dharamsala, and emphasised a ‘shared’ Buddhist heritage as being central to the Tibetan national identity.
