“…Perhaps Linnaeus and Tenzin Phuntsok were influenced by an earlier work or a more general focus on morphology that was somewhat "global" (at least pan-Eurasian) in scope. Work by Katharina Sabernig, Ronit Yoeli-Tlalim, and others have shown the connections between Tibetan and western (Greek and Persian) medicines in the areas of anatomy, use of musk, urine analysis, and the development of some aspects of medical theory, such as the concept of "humors" (Akasoy et al 2016;Garrett 2007;Sabernig 2016;Yoeli-Tlalim 2010, 2012 Four Tantras may be defined by slightly different criteria for each category (preparation, habitat, root quality), as those aspects relate to the nature/essence of a substance, the Crystal Mirror superimposes the over-riding criterion of type of material substance on all constituents, regardless of preparation, root quality, habitat, and efficacy. This superimposition creates categories that are calibrated and "equalized" to be based on the overriding principle of material substance; such a principle does not appear to exist in the Four Tantras.…”

“…Still, the notion of Tibet as a monolithic and homogeneous Buddhist society lingers despite the numerous studies that have highlighted Tibet's diverse Mongolian, Bon, Newari, and Sherpa communities (Cabezón 2010;Gellner 1992;Ortner 1989). Geoffrey Samuel's landmark study of Tibetan culture, society, and religion, Civilized Shamans, is at its core a multi-themed soliloquy positing a single point: that "premodern Tibet contained a greater variety of social and political formations than is often appreciated" (Samuel 1993, 39 Akasoy, Burnett, and Yoeli-Tlalim 2010;Fischer 2008;Gaborieau and Muhammad 1973;Horlemann 2012).…”

“…Kangding 康定) in eastern Kham; as far north as Labrang Monastery in Amdo; and as far south as the Himalayan hill towns of Kalimpong and Darjeeling in northern India. Yet with several notable exceptions, there has been little sustained scholarly inquiry into the presence of Tibetan Muslims in mainstream Tibetan society (Abū Bakr and Sharma 2004;Akasoy, Burnett, and Yoeli-Tlalim 2010;Fischer 2008;Gaborieau and Muhammad 1973;Horlemann 2012).…”
