Abstract:
Main supportive condition for writing these commentaries was Je Tsong Khapa’s
(1357-1419) reformations of Tibetan Buddhism. First biggest commentary on “The
Root Tantra” was Zurkhar Lodroe Gyalpo’s “Sublime Ones Wisdom”. All later
commentaries were based on his commentary. 2. Most of commentaries’ dedication
is to give comprehensive accounts of deep and hidden meanings of “Four Tantras
of Medicine”; and by doing so, to protect and preserve this precious heritage of
oriental people for a long time. 3. It is extremely significant that all sages underlined
“Four Tantras of Medicine” is not dedicated for making others admire but for deep
study of this text through analysis of principles and practice it for the sake of
sentient beings. 4. Commentaries are dedicated to make those extremely deep
notions and terminologies comprehensive for beginners; and to analyze principles
and enrich them as well. 5. It is assertion for reformation and transformation of
traditional medicine since it is originated in India, which has hot climate, then
transmitted to snowy Tibet and Mongolian steppes. In other words, it’s been
practiced in geographically different locations with different climates. 6. Through this
research on deep and hidden meanings of terminologies in the Root Tantra, it is
proved that Mongolian traditional medicine has its origin from ancient Indian Ayur
Vedas. 7. We did some clarifications about unification of Buddhist knowledge and its
elements as well as structure though the lights of “Perfect Accumulation” teachings
of “The Root Tantra”. 8. Rising up tree method of “The Root Tantra” of traditional
medicine is extremely fine and complex system, and therefore, it is still advanced
method for medical training. 9. Mongolian sages adapted Medical Science that was
originated from Ayur Vedas in Mongolian conditions and enriched it. Thus, it is
developed as Mongolian traditional medicine and formed great spiritual heritage.
