ABSTRACT
Introduction@#The development of Mongolian Traditional Medicine has been closely related to the Indian Ayurvedic medicine in the beginning, and the history of Tibetan medicine since the late middle ages. Therefore, it was impossible to conduct a study without including the historical texts of Tibetan medicine within history of Mongolian Traditional medicine. The scientists from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China included "Materia medica of Tara", "Materia medica of Manjushri", "Materia medica of Yuthog” in the traditional medicinal ancient scripture. However, in recent times, although it has been considered that the "Ocean of medicine names" scripture of Karmapa Rangjung Dorje (1284-1339), the 3rd incarnating lama of Buddhist Karmapa sect should be included in the ancient reference book of pharmacology of Traditional medicine, there is no study aimed to study the ancient medicine in detail. Due to that we aimed to study the ancient pharmacology reference book in detail. @*Goal@#We aimed to clarify the hidden meaning, science or use of the names of raw materials in the fauna of the "Ocean of medicine names". @*Materials and Methods@#We conducted the study by using manuscripts, primary source methods, checklist method, and analysis synthesis method. We have used following materials Ocean of medicine names and Beautiful eyed ornament.@*Results@#Karmapa Rangjung Dorje's " Ocean of medicine names" was a novel written in the form of a narrative of the properties of 768 medicinal raw materials divided into 11 groups. When these 11 groups were divided into plant, animal, and mineral raw materials, the percentage of each was determined as following: plants 462 (60.2%), 130 (17%), 91, 127 (16.5%), 23 (3%), and 26 (3.3%) of these raw materials from plants, minerals, animals, raw materials, extracts and tincture, respectively. </br>Also, the fauna was divided into humans, large meat, meat products, bones, vital bones, horns, bile, feathers, hair, feces, oil, milk, yogurt, and others. We differentially counted them by 8 faunas of animals and identified 90 animals and 116 raw material types. @*Conclusion@#There are more than 1.5 million species of all kinds of animals in the world. Most of these are occupied by insects. Forests, mountains, steppes, deserts, oceans, rivers, farmlands, urban gardens, homes, and any part of the biosphere are bound to encounter animals. </br>Medicines of animal origin occupy a very important place in modern medicine. High biologically active hormones and enzymes are extracted from internal and external excretory glands of animals and used for treatment. Lungs, eyes, blood, and bile are valuable raw materials for medicine.
ABSTRACT
Introduction@#Luvsandanzanjantsan has written a total of 4 volumes, 79 collections and 220 classes in Tibetan, including 5 medical books. Luvsandanzanjantsan’s “man ngag bdud rtsi zegs ma” sutra, which was the main research material for our study. We made it easier to start studying the “Root Tantra” of the “Four Medical Tantras”, a classic work of Indian and Tibetan medicine. “Four Medical Tantras” was the main guide for medical students of traditional medicine at that time. The book “man ngag bdud rtsi zegs ma” has 18 pages sutra from the many works written by Khamba Nomun Khan. He summarized his experience and lessons learned in differential treatment of fever, some of the most common diseases in women, medical care for 22 diseases such as wind, bile and phlegm, measles, mumps, gonorrhea, edema, cold, and so on. We have studied the medicine treatment of colds from these treatments.@*Purpose@#Explain the meaning of the use of anti-cold medicine in the “man ngag bdud rtsi zegs ma” sutra by Lama Gegeen Luvsandanzanjantsan.@*Methods@#Methods of textual analysis for ancient books and analysis and synthesis were used in the study.@*Conclusion@#Luvsandanzanjantsan was not only a famous scientist who penetrated in many fields of knowledge, but also expanded the research work of Mongolian medicine and became the first Mongolian doctor to study medicine in outer Mongolia. There are three parts in the “man ngag bdud rtsi zegs ma” sutra by Lama Gegeen Luvsandanzanjantsan. For treatment to the anti-cold, Mana-4 tan and Norov-7 tan are used in preliminary stage, Tuglogunsel, Tushmel-3, Gajid-9, Erkhem-8, Gurgem-7, Rinchenshagba and Uvsun em-11 are used in hot stage.
