(med) medicine, medication, materia medica <br>
The Astangahrdayasamhita of Vagbhata (6th-7th c.), translated in 1015 by Rin chen bzang po and the Kashmiri Janardana, was the main Indian medical influence in early Tibet. Chinese traditions were present, and traditions from Persia, Uighur, Tangut and Byzantine are mentioned during the imperal period as well. Strongly influenced by the Astangahrdayasamhita, the 4 Tantras (Tibet 12th. c.) of G.yu thog pa the Younger became in the course of the 13th cent. the central canonical text, with the important commentary Vaidurya sngon po (17th c.), and illustrated by the Medical Thangkas of the 4 Tantras (commissioned by the regent Sangye Gyatso, 1688). The Materia Medica section is organized in 8 groupes. <br>
 
Concerning Materia Medica, Deumar Ge she Bstan 'dzin phun tshog wrote the most reknown pharmacopoeia, Shel gong (1727) and his extensive autocommentary Shel phreng (1737), the Stainless Crystal Garland, describing almost 2300 medicinal substances in 13 groups. During the 10 years of work he travaelled to Nepal and India to research plants which don't grow in Tibet, but were part of the Materia Medica. The mongolian lay-person Jampal Dorje (19th c.) innovated with lively depictions to illustrate not  thankas, but a printed book, his mDzes mTshar Mig rGyan (Beautiful Marvelous Eye Ornament), rather a field-guide than a medical treatise. A contemporary reference is  'Khrung dpe dri med shel gyi me long (Immaculate Crystal Mirror of Materia Medica Illustration) by dGa ba'i rdo rje (1995).  <br>

(med) medicine, medication, materia medica
The Astangahrdayasamhita of Vagbhata (6th-7th c.), translated in 1015 by Rin chen bzang po and the Kashmiri Janardana, was the main Indian medical influence in early Tibet. Chinese traditions were present, and traditions from Persia, Uighur, Tangut and Byzantine are mentioned during the imperal period as well. Strongly influenced by the Astangahrdayasamhita, the 4 Tantras (Tibet 12th. c.) of G.yu thog pa the Younger became in the course of the 13th cent. the central canonical text, with the important commentary Vaidurya sngon po (17th c.), and illustrated by the Medical Thangkas of the 4 Tantras (commissioned by the regent Sangye Gyatso, 1688). The Materia Medica section is organized in 8 groupes.

Concerning Materia Medica, Deumar Ge she Bstan 'dzin phun tshog wrote the most reknown pharmacopoeia, Shel gong (1727) and his extensive autocommentary Shel phreng (1737), the Stainless Crystal Garland, describing almost 2300 medicinal substances in 13 groups. During the 10 years of work he travaelled to Nepal and India to research plants which don't grow in Tibet, but were part of the Materia Medica. The mongolian lay-person Jampal Dorje (19th c.) innovated with lively depictions to illustrate not thankas, but a printed book, his mDzes mTshar Mig rGyan (Beautiful Marvelous Eye Ornament), rather a field-guide than a medical treatise. A contemporary reference is 'Khrung dpe dri med shel gyi me long (Immaculate Crystal Mirror of Materia Medica Illustration) by dGa ba'i rdo rje (1995).
The page numbers of the Tibetan in the individual notices refer to the following versions :
