འབྲུག་མོའི་སྒྱུ་རྩལ། Drukmo Gyal


Tashi Delek! My name is Drukmo Gyal, growing up in a multi-ethnic community in Rebgong region located in Amdo Tibet, now part of Qinghai province in China, healing through mantra has been part and parcel of people's everyday life.


There are more than 400 different ways of singing "OM MANI PADME HUNG SHRI," a well-known Tibetan mantra popularized by the Tibetan King srong btsan sgam po or Songtsen Gampo, during the 7th century (569–649).

In 2012, Fascinated by Dr.Nida Chenatsang, a Ngakpas (Mantra/tantric ritual practitioner 'male') who practices Traditional Tibetan Medicine. I studied Traditional Tibetan Medicine in Amdo, later had the chance to work for Estonian Academy for Traditional Tibetan Medicine (EATTM) in Tallinn. Encountering European cultures pushed me towards the path of exploring the possibility of introducing the mantras I grew up in my household in the West.


Since 2015, I presented more than a hundred concerts in 30 countries, popularizing mantras from Tibetan medical tradition with the support of Buddhist and yoga communities in Europe, America, and East Asia. In these concerts, the main focus was on singing the mantras and explaining how one can combine each mantra with diet, lifestyle, medication, and external therapies acquired from my Tibetan medicine studies.

During such times, I curated four mantra albums with global distribution. According to Tibetan Traditional medicine, the power of 'prescribed' mantra and meditation are essential to mental and physical well-beings. The role of chanting or singing mantra is not only confined to spiritual benefits but also the medicinal values of disease prevention and cure attached to it.
