Reader comments

Lucy/ 01/07/2018 I am getting acquainted with the teachings of M. Roach, I am very impressed with it, I feel that the truth speaks through this knowledge, because there is no resistance when you read, everything is so natural and logical. .I have been interested in karma for a long time, even before I became acquainted with the diamond cutter’s system, I did a lot of things intuitively, but there was no system. Now a system has emerged, which I am incredibly happy about and I have the intention of applying this system in life. Now I’m reading M. Roach’s book “Karma of Love”, since in relationships my karma is not the best, I realized this a long time ago, but didn’t know what to do with it. The book is very strong, it gives me goosebumps, I re-read some chapters several times times, although everything is written in an accessible and easy way. After reading many books on self-development, I thought that there was little that could hook me, but only now I have the feeling that I can really influence fate and karma, I feel great gratitude inside.

Alsou/ 01/5/2018 Criticism. what the charlatan and other negativity are shouting - what’s bad about these books? They call for murder, violence, fornication and debauchery?? Do they sow mesanthropy, chauvinism and other negative things? NO! Before you say anything, create something for yourself first. useful for everyone! And remember about karma, it will definitely return to everyone!

Alexander/ 12.12.2017 Diamond cutter - very strong book for those who are a little familiar with Buddhism. In it, in the first, a clear and understandable definition of EMPTINITY is given and this fundamental concept is revealed with examples. Without verbosity and very clearly. For this alone, my deep gratitude goes to Geshe Roach Michael. Om Sarva Mangalam!

Michael/ 10/15/2017 only ps can criticize the wonderful books of Michael Roach.

Lyudmila Zaitseva/ 07/3/2017 Thank you! I am beginning to comprehend the wisdom of your books! I really need help!

Altyn/ November 2, 2015 I read the first books in one sitting. Attended an intensive seminar in Moscow, which was held in August 2015. Geshe Michael is one of advanced people humanity.

Christina/ 09.27.2015 Not a single date in the biography matches, Warren Buffett did not buy any jewelry company Richline Group in 2009, and the one that is part of the holding was founded in 1915.

Anna for Victoria/ 08/24/2015 Oh my God, Victoria! So, you live a spiritual life, but, in spite of everything, instead of “put down” you write “lay down”? And why then is all this ostentatious tinsel and lies about a high spiritual life needed, if there is no ordinary culture that anyone, ordinary child absorbs in its native environment since school years. It would be better to take a Russian language textbook and study it thoroughly.

Olga/ 08/09/2015 Delighted with the books. Everything is clear, you just need to digest and swallow. The philosophy of Buddhism is so easily conveyed - I bow down. Such great knowledge and experience are conveyed with ease and love. Thanks to the author and the Buddhas!

I have repeatedly come across recommendations for books on psychosomatics by the author Lowen. I downloaded it and started reading. Some sad shit. By the way, I listened to the seminar of the vaunted Zotova - it was just quiet horror. I decided that before starting with Lowen specifically, just in case, I’ll read what I have related to the topic - these are 2 books “The Wisdom of the Body” and “What We Know.”

Michael Kern, D.O., R.C.S.T., M.I.Cr.A., N.D.

Wisdom of the body. Craniosacral approach to health

“This is an amazing work, very wise and deeply inspired. Michael met my expectations. When you finish reading this book, you will either want to become a craniosacral therapy specialist or start looking for one. If you're ready, read this book."

“There are subtle healing processes in the body that conventional medicine has largely forgotten and desperately needs to be reminded of. The Wisdom of the Body addresses many of these by focusing on craniosacral therapy. This book is a call for a holistic approach to healing, in which we respect everything that makes us human, body, mind, soul. Michael Kern's knowledge is amazing."

“If in our tense time of information exchange you want to receive full list all aspects of the craniosacral phenomenon, then “The Wisdom of the Body” is the book for you. Feel it the same way you live and breathe.”

Dr Joseph Goodman, D.O., N.D., Professor of the International Cranial Association (Cranial Osteopathic Association), British Acupuncture Council and Dean of the College of Osteopaths, London

“The Wisdom of the Body is a comprehensive book about releasing patterns of stress and suffering in our lives. Michael Kern's depth of practical experience is evident as he clearly explains the intricate workings of our energy bodies. His work illuminates many aspects of the great traditions of meditation. I highly recommend this book for gaining a comprehensive understanding of how the mind and body function."

“I would like many medical students to have the opportunity to read Michael Kern's book. After reading it, they will understand that they must develop sensitivity in their fingers and realize that their hands have the power of healing.”

Dr. Michelle Odan, obstetrician, founder of the Center for Primary Health Research, author of Primal Health, Entering the World, The Farmer and the Obstetrician" and "The identification of Love"

“Craniosacral therapy has always had an ambiguous relationship with osteopathy and, in particular, with “cranial osteopathy.” Michael Kern, of course, acknowledges that the roots of craniosacral therapy are associated with osteopathy, but he also distinguishes it as a separate discipline. Whatever our point of view, this book is a very elegant, eloquent and humane work. For the preliminary training of students, this book vividly presents the philosophy and principles underlying the practice, as well as delightful quotes from some wise men and women who have worked in this field since E.T. Stilla. The content and integrity of the material reflect a sincere and dedicated teacher and operator who seems to relish the celebration of this approach to healthcare, whatever its form.
accepted and no matter what it was called.”

Robert Lever, V.A., D.O. Met, GOsC, senior lecturer, European school Osteopathy (Maidstone, England)

“Michael Kern's book The Wisdom of the Body is both very accurate and inspiring. Addressed to both laymen and operators, this book is useful reference for the Breath of Life model of craniosacral work. Within this model sacred relationship between spirit and matter are not only thought through and explored, but also professionally used to facilitate the expression of our innate health. Michael's book will also serve as a resource for crane operators, providing a different perspective to enrich our work."

Avadan Larson L.Ac, CSTD, Certified Craniosacral Therapy Instructor, Upledger Institute

“This book was written based on long experience, and I believe it will benefit many people.”

Honorary Doctor Trogawa Rainpoch, Head of the Tibetan Medical Institute, Darjeeling, India

“The Wisdom of the Body is an attempt at a comprehensive, biodynamic understanding of life that dares to combine abstract and cosmological concepts on the one hand with specific and practical anatomical and physiological principles on the other. The stories Michael Kern tells about his patients are both educational and interesting. A very important section is devoted to the concept and treatment of trauma, and the application of the craniosacral approach to pregnancy and childbirth. This book is intended for both operators high level, and for non-professionals who want to learn about this area.”

“This is a well-written, practical overview of craniosacral therapy, one of the safest and effective techniques for better health than I have ever encountered."

Warning

The following information is provided for informational purposes only. You should always consult your physician before doing anything described in this book. Any use of the material contained on the following pages is at the sole discretion of the reader.

Health is universal. It is an expression of universal creative potential. We live in a universe that is constantly being created. Every moment is a moment of creation. Our human body- an expression of this constant, regular creation. Creation reveals its intentions through the Breath of Life (a term used by Dr. William Garner Sutherland to refer to the intentions and actions of the universal Creative Mind). This mysterious Intelligence, which we might call God or Divinity, manifests its creative principle from the moment of conception until the day we die. This is expressed within the embryo as cellular movement and development.

Dr. Sutherland stated that the Breath of Life generates biodynamic potency inside body fluids. It is the guiding force that governs the form and function of the human mind and body. It is this biodynamic potency that supports the original purpose of human life, his innate “project” of health, which has an active physiological function. The potency of the Breath of Life maintains the health of every cell and tissue and allows them to function in certain ways. It is through this process that organization is maintained and life events are focused and compensated. Thus, the existence of the human body is a living biodynamic process in which the Breath of Life constantly manifests its creative intentions.

In this book, osteopathic doctor Michael Kern introduces the concept craniosacral approach, which outlines a biodynamic perspective within a clinical context. Is not simple task, so this introductory article is very necessary. This view represents a paradigm shift from the concept primary respiratory mechanism, which expresses a mechanistic rhythmic impulse, to dynamic system tidal movements that express the orders of the Breath of Life. From a biodynamic perspective, the primacy of the Breath of Life is felt and understood, and the focus of therapeutic work is the action of the Breath of Life and the forces generated by it.

In the original cranial concept, the primary respiratory mechanism is described as a group of anatomical and physiological functions and parts that express the primary subtle respiratory movement. It consists of:
1) congenital fluctuation of cerebrospinal fluid;
2) congenital mobility of the brain and spinal cord;
3) mobility of mutual tension membranes;
4) articular mobility of the skull bones;
5) involuntary mobility of the sacrum between the iliacus bones of the pelvis.

A shift in perception to the primacy of the Breath of Life as our motivating and
The organizing factor underlies the biodynamic understanding of the human system. From this point of view human system is seen as organizing a unified area around the imperative of the Breath of Life. Thus, the concept of the primary respiratory mechanism, consisting of tissue and fluid elements, shifts to a more wider system, which expresses the primary respiratory function of the Breath of Life. Hence, The primary respiratory mechanism (PRM) becomes the primary respiratory system (PRS), which includes:

- dynamic immobility in the center of all movement;
- the potency of the Breath of Life itself, which is called the long tide. It is a bioelectrical matrix organized around a core midline bodies;
— the organizing and unifying function of the potency of the Breath of Life within the body fluids;
— organization of fluid and tissue systems at the direction of the Breath of Life and its project;
- the expression of primary respiration in cycles of inhalation and exhalation involving tissues, fluids and potency as a unit of function.

I have known Michael for many years and know him as good specialist and an experienced teacher. He has enough experience to try to explain concepts that are not easily explained to the general public. In the following chapters, Michael explains these concepts very clearly based on his own understanding And clinical practice. Once again, his task was not an easy one, since the observations we make are always filtered through our personal perceptual processes and modern usage of words and terminology. I feel like Michael did a wonderful job. Once you finish reading it, you will be able to take a journey to experience and explore these phenomena both within yourself and in your relationships with others. This book is important contribution into this area and I hope it will have many readers.

Franklin Sills.
Devon, England, January 2001

My own experience with craniosacral work began over twenty years ago when I first sought treatment after being disillusioned and dropped out of college. I found myself at the crossroads of many roads, and I became very scared. I wondered how I should live next? For many months I was overcome by fatigue. I felt constant pressure in my head and struggled to get out of bed every day. My family doctor told me that I had probably caught a viral disease, but I felt that he did not know what was happening to me. Around the same time, some of my close friends were enthusiastically praising a craniosacral operator who worked in the neighborhood, and I, in desperation, made an appointment with him without having any the slightest idea about what to expect from this treatment.

I remember very well that during the very first sessions I felt that I was heard. It wasn't due to any verbal comfort or sympathy, although I'm sure that helped too, I'd just never been touched in that way before. The doctor put his hands on my head, barely touching it, and waited silently. I have never experienced such a light yet penetrating touch or been in such intimate yet simple contact with another person. It was as if my entire being was inside this contact - mind, body and heart.

Moreover, this was not just a passive or static process, for I could sense a powerful restructuring taking place within me. There was a clear and dynamic connection between the operator's hands and my body. The touch of his hands was precise and appropriate, as if they were speaking to some core part of my being. Gradually I began to notice that there was something else besides the restlessness and heaviness contained in my body. I felt the depth of this penetration and began to recover.

Thanks to craniosacral treatment, the pressure in my head increased, my energy returned, and I gradually began to find my feet. I wanted to understand what happened to me and how it worked, so I started visiting various lectures and seminars on holistic medicine and became very interested in it! After completing an internship with some wonderful and patient teachers, I started practicing. However, I soon came to the conclusion again that I did not know what to do next. Should I go through long-term training in osteopathy and devote yourself to this work? I decided to take some time to think and set off on a trip to the west coast of the United States. One evening, in a severe state of indecision, I walked into a Chinese restaurant near San Francisco. At the end of dinner the waiter brought me tea and cookies. As I unwrapped the cookie wrapper, the words written on it caught my eye: “You will succeed best in a profession dedicated to serving humanity!” I don't know whether this was a prophetic intervention or not, but it was enough to confirm my desire to study osteopathy, so I returned to England to begin the training process.

This book is the result of many years of treatment, study, practice and teaching. My goal was to present an outline of the craniosacral approach that is accessible to the layperson who wants to delve a little deeper into “how it works.” I hope that my book will also be a valuable resource for craniosacral therapy students and other operators.

I hope to introduce the reader to the fundamental principles of craniosacral work by examining its development from the early concepts of its founder, Dr. William Garner Sutherland, to the present day. In this process, I will look at the layers of physiological functioning that fundamentally affect our health in order to determine how we can work with disease at the level of its origin. This book is not intended as a textbook, but as a guide to the natural laws of healing and how to apply them to craniosacral work. It is my hope that from this book the reader will learn the enormous potential of this approach to return us to our source of health.

Behind last years craniosacral work has become one of the most rapidly developing species natural treatment. More and more more people began to seek craniosacral treatment. Patients of all ages with a wide variety of conditions have been able to improve their health, but how to explain these results remains a matter of debate. This may be due to the fact that nothing externally happens during the treatment process. Unfortunately, many of the assumptions that have been made reflect only a partial understanding of how our bodies function. Any view that divides it into its component parts loses sight of the larger picture and tends to be misleading.

This book presents biodynamic approach to craniosacral work - that is, an approach that recognizes the innate power of life in the body and our inner wholeness.

Because we live in a materialistic and mechanistic age, we often lose sight of the fact that we are more than just a collection of tissues, bones and fluids, and try to look only for explanations in physical terms. Yet at the heart of the craniosacral concept is the recognition of the life force, which Dr. Sutherland praises. He called her Breath of Life which is the fundamental principle that maintains order and balance in the body.

The biodynamic approach was further developed by operators such as Rollin Becker, James Gilous and Franklin Sills. This book also includes views from mainstream allopathic medicine, physics, spiritual traditions, psychotherapy, and other treatments. They can expand our understanding of how our bodies function.

I am aware that there is a lot of jargon to explain craniosacral work, and some of the concepts may be difficult to put into words as they are largely experiential and subjective. Therefore, I apologize in advance if there remains any ambiguity, but I hope that the reader will explore what follows from his own experience. As the old saying goes, “An ounce of practice is worth a ton of theory.”

While some jargon is inevitable, I have tried to use the language of the founders of this approach to be consistent. Many cultures believe that if we call something by its true name, we can understand its nature. Additionally, Craniosacral Therapy is an approach that addresses many levels of our experience while being firmly grounded in the anatomy of the body. This is where much of the power and efficiency of this work comes from, so I have used a lot of anatomical jargon but tried to keep it to a minimum to make this book as accessible to the lay reader as possible.

The text of the second edition of my book has been updated, some chapters have been added, and other chapters have been changed. I believe that these changes will help clarify the biodynamic approach to craniosacral work, and that this book can serve as a bridge between this way of working and other approaches.

I hope no one is offended by my use of the pronoun male, talk about the operator. This is not due to gender discrimination or the fact that women are rarely highly skilled craniosacral operators. In fact, women are often even more able to develop the palpatory and perceptual skills required for craniosacral work, but because English language there are no neuter pronouns, it seems more natural to me to stick to own experience when describing various cases. (When describing the treatment of patients, I changed their names, but retained their gender.)

My entire field of activity has been a journey of discovery for me. Every new patient who comes to see me is a teacher when I listen unique story his body. If this innate knowledge is properly assessed, then life skills will be more useful for working with it than theories or techniques. Biodynamic craniosacral work is generally easy to use. It is about listening to the wisdom within us and helping it restore the health of the body.

By connecting with the core levels of health, the craniosacral approach is gentle and powerful tool to relieve suffering. It is an exploration of the essence of recovery and can take us to the deep roots of our being.

Can Buddhist monk do business? Can he do business successfully? Is there really a contradiction between spiritual practice and material enrichment? A practical answer to these questions is the life story of the author of this book, Geshe Michael Roach. Twenty years of persistent comprehension of Buddhism led him to obtain the academic title of Geshe - Master of Buddhist Sciences. Seventeen years in the diamond business allowed him to transform a small company with an initial capital of fifty thousand dollars into a transnational company whose turnover exceeded one hundred million dollars. The author of The Diamond Cutter believes that the goal of business and ancient Tibetan wisdom, as well as all human aspirations, is the same: to become rich, to achieve both external and internal prosperity.

Chapter 1
Where did wisdom come from?

Ha ancient language In India this doctrine is called "Arya Vajra Chedaka Nama Prajnya Paramita Mahayana Sutra."

In the language of Tibet - “Pakpa Sherab Kyi Paroltu Chinpa Dorje Chupa Shejawa Tekpa Chenpoy Do.”

It is translated into Russian as "Diamond Wisdom", a book of the path of compassion, a textbook of perfect wisdom.

What exactly makes this business textbook different from any other you've ever read? Its source. It is an ancient Buddhist book "Diamond Wisdom" lines from which are given above .

This book contains ancient knowledge, using which we turned Andin International into a company with annual revenues of over one hundred million dollars.

First, it would be good to know a little about this important book in order to better understand its role in the history of the Eastern world.

"Diamond Wisdom"- This is the first book known on Earth that was printed and not written by hand. The British Museum has a copy dating from 868. This predates the publication of the Gutenberg Bible by almost six hundred years.

The Diamond Wisdom contains the teachings of the Buddha, which are about two and a half thousand years old. At first it was transmitted orally, and then, with the development of writing, it was inscribed on long palm leaves. The words of the book were scratched onto durable leaves with a needle, and then soot was rubbed into the scratches. In southern Asia there are still quite books to read made in this way.

Typically, these palm pages were held together in one of two ways: either an awl was pierced through the middle of a packet of leaves and tied by passing thread through the resulting hole, or the books were simply wrapped in cloth.

Teaching "Diamond Wisdom" was given by the Buddha in Sanskrit, an ancient language of India believed to be four thousand years old. About a thousand years ago this book came to Tibet and was translated into Tibetan. It was printed in Tibet for centuries in the following way: They cut text onto wooden boards, covered them with paint, laid on long strips of homemade paper, pressed them down, and then rolled them with a roller. These long sheets of paper - woodcuts - were stored in saffron or burgundy cloth, just as in the days of palm leaf books.
