"In a time when we have lost our collective and personal souls, Tenzin Wangyal offers us an unfailing compass to our original, unbroken self. Read this book, and find your way back to health and wholeness!"
-- Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., author of Shaman, Healer, Sage and Mending the Past and Healing the Future with Soul Retrieval

"Tenzin Wangyal is a generous teacher, an insightful master, and a brilliant translator of timeless wisdom. In The True Source of Healing, he demystifies the ancient practice of soul retrieval in a profound, clear, and accessible way that gently leads us to the core of our very being. This journey with Tenzin is a joy, and the results are transformational."
-- davidji, best-selling author of Secrets of Meditation

"Tenzin Rinpoche offers an ancient, lineage-based approach to the concept of soul retrieval, and in so doing brings brilliant Tibetan Bön wisdom to the heart of this practice."
-- Charlie Morley, author of Dreams of Awakening

"What a treasure! Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche skillfully guides us in ancient practices to retrieve our basic goodness and intelligence. These practices, which we can apply immediately to our fast-paced and stress-filled lives, will revitalize us at the deepest level of our being. The True Source of Healing invites us to stillness, silence, and spaciousness, and to joyfully allow the qualities of our basic nature--unbounded awareness and a warm heart--to emerge so that we may be healed."
--Matteo Pistono, author of Fearless in Tibet and In the Shadow of the Buddha
