The three excerpts translated below were selected from two of the earliest sources depicting the origins of medicine in Tibet. Despite their differences in terms of detail, style, and genre, each narrative emphasizes the Buddhist origins of either the Tibetan medical tradition itself, the tradition of canonical Buddhist medicine that was transmitted from India to Tibet, or even the entire field of healing knowledge. Read separately, each narrative promotes a distinct account of the origin and transmission of medical knowledge among mythical, legendary, and historical figures in India and Tibet. Read together, however, these three accounts depict attempts at the reconciliation of several competing narratives that were developing in the medical schools of twelfth-and thirteenth-century Tibet, and that continue to affect the representation of the Tibetan medical tradition today.

Despite its relatively short duration, it is impossible to do justice to the turbulent history of Tibetan medicine’s first 50 years in exile within the space of an article. The closer the history presented here moves towards the present, the more complex and multi-layered it becomes, forcing me to treat events and developments that would merit whole articles in themselves only briefly and cursorily. This article’s purpose, then, is merely to provide a rough outline of the developments that shaped Tibetan medic...
