In the Tibetan tradition, in addition to the well-known anatomical vessels through which blood and lymph circulate, the so-called. "Vessels of the subtle body" or life-giving vessels (Tib. Thig - le) that form the "vajra body". The treatises indicate three types of such vessels. The first type is the vessels that run throughout the body. The essential energy "LA" or "tigle" (Tib. BLA) circulates in them. It is believed that all "tigle" are generated by the "main tigle" located in the center of the heart chakra, where the consciousness that experienced the bardo state (an intermediate state after death and before a new birth) entered the mixture of male and female embryonic fluids, initiating the development of the embryo, the main "tigle", according to the views of the Tibetans, is a formation the size of a small pea or a large white mustard seed. It includes both the pure quintessence of the five primary elements, represented by the five-colored rainbow halo, and the absolute consciousness with its support - the subtlest energy current. Consciousness and its energetic current are inseparable essences, just as the smell of camphor is inseparable from camphor itself. It is believed that this main thinnest "tigle" generates white (paternal) and red (maternal) "tigle", which are found in all vessels and chakras of the subtle body, with white "tigle" prevailing in the head chakra, and red - in the navel chakra. These are the subtle tigle because they are inherent in the “subtle” body. Supporting human life and development, they received the name "LA", which roughly means "life essence". Taking part in the formation of the body in the embryonic stage, white tigles give rise to bone marrow, bones and male semen, while red ones give rise to skin,muscles, blood, including uterine embryonic blood. Therefore, male semen and uterine blood are also called "white and red tigle", but not subtle, but "gross tigle", since they are inherent in the body of flesh and blood, they are also called "LA".
Circulating through the vessel of life, "LA" maximizes its potency only at certain points of the body, which are called "locations of la". When approaching such a point, the potencies of "la" gradually increase, at the very point they reach their culmination, then fade out to begin to increase when approaching the next point. These points are called certain Tibetan syllables and are tied to a particular day of the lunar month. Thus, the full circulation cycle of "life entities" lasts 30 days, starting with the first and ending with the thirtieth day of the lunar month. In men, since the masculine principle is the white left vessel of the "subtle body", called "ZHAN-MA" or "LALANA", such circulation begins on the first day of the lunar month from the first joint of the big toe of the left foot, and ends at the first joint of the big toe of the right legs. In women, since the feminine principle is a red vessel of the "subtle body" called "ROMA" or "RASANA", circulation occurs on the first day of the lunar month and, starting from the first joint of the big toe of the right foot, and ends at the first joint of the big toe of the left legs. Below is a table of "la location". On the border of the last and the first day of the lunar month, the "location of la" is the sole of the right foot. On the days of the climax of LA, it is strictly forbidden to carry out bloodletting, cauterization and surgical manipulations in the place of concentration of energy. But knowing the special tantric practices of Vajrayana - tantra, by concentrating on the "location of la" and reading certain mantras, you can both achieve certain spiritual experiences and harmonize the energy potential of the body.

In general, our own internal energies can always be influenced by external energies. These relationships between our internal energies and the external energies of time and space that surround us determine the norms for the placement of our soul relative to the physical body. Our soul (Tib. BLa) is connected or connected to our physical body at a special point called the point of the soul (bLa-na), and this point changes its location in the body depending on the lunar phase, according to the table below. Determining the location of this point of the soul is very important in the practice of acupuncture or any physical (including) surgical interventions, since this point is especially sensitive and open to external influences. Therefore, in controversial cases, one should not resort to pressure or cauterization of this point.
Sometimes when we are apathetic and depressed, then, as the Tibetans say, it means that our soul (bLa) has gone somewhere, because the owner of the soul has no presence or awareness to keep it as it should be. When we do not maintain control of our soul, we can lose it, and then we appear distracted and in prostration. There are other reasons for the soul's departure. When this happens, we can see it in the person's face. Such a distracted, “empty” look indicates that the soul has left him. When this happens, it is a sure sign that a person will not live very long. At most, he will live for three months, because without a soul he is extremely passive and easily becomes a victim of negative influences or evil spirits (Tib. Gdon).

Now that you have learned some Tibetan terms, you can use the knowledge gained not only to prevent diseases, increase life expectancy, but also to treat fairly complex chronic diseases. To do this, after completing the body posture indicated below, concentrate all your attention on the indicated point until a clearly pronounced pulsation appears in this place, after which two syllables are loudly chanted (taken from the table and characteristic for this day of the week. thus, the first syllable is shorter than the second, and they correspond to the right and left sides of men, for women, on the contrary, the short first syllable corresponds to the left side, the long second to the right.
