About This Item

London, England: Duncan Baird Publishers, 2007. Revised edition [stated]. First printing [stated]. Trade paperback. Very good. Some minor page soiling noted.. Glued binding. 144 p. Illustrations (color). Further Reading. Index. From Wikipedia: "Kum Nye and sKu-mNyé are a wide variety of Tibetan religious and medical body practices. The two terms are different spellings of the same Tibetan phrase, which literally means "massage of the subtle body". Some systems of sku mnye are similar to Yoga, T'ai chi or therapeutic massage. "Kum Nye", Ku Nye, and Kunye are also used to transcribe the Tibetan phrases dku mnye ("belly massage") and bsku mnye ("oil massage"). dKu mnye and bsku mnye manipulate the physical body, rather than the subtle (energetic) one. Systems of Kum Nye are found in many Tibetan Buddhist and Bön traditions. These can be entirely different both in purpose and in methods. For instance, some forms are very slow moving; others are intensely aerobic. Some systems are based in the Tibetan Medical Tantras (scriptures), and are mainly therapeutic. Three systems of sku mnye have been described and taught in detail in English. One of these are Tarthang Tulku's Kum Nye.
