American Terry Clifford's book «Demons of Our Mind: The Diamond of Healing» is not just an introduction to the psychiatry section of Tibetan medicine. In addition to, in fact, describing the methods of treating mental illness, which the second part of the book is devoted to, it provides a deep and accurate analysis of the methods and approaches of sova rigpa (Tibetan medicine) in general.
The most important aspect of the story runs as a red thread - a three-level approach to the description of all processes in the body, perception, in the end, in the world around us. The clear division of sowa rigpa methods into dhamic, tantric and somatic treatment seems especially valuable.
The publication of this magnificent book in Russian became possible thanks to the efforts of the experienced and knowledgeable doctor of Tibetan medicine and consistent practitioner Vsevolod Orlov.
Recommended as additional literature for MATTM students.
