Both Buddhism and shamanism continue today to play a role in the healing practices found throughout traditional Thai culture. Drawing upon the author's extensive academic research and practice of these arts, this book will provide an overview to the spiritual practices of Thailand, with particular emphasis on healing rituals and meditations that can be practiced in the modern West. Illustrated throughout with attractive photography and diagrams, "The Spiritual Healing of Traditional Thailand" is intended to be a visual experience, drawing the reader into the colourful world of Thai spirituality. The photographs were taken between 1997 and 2004, as the author traveled the countryside of Thailand engaging with monks, shamans, and healers of every stripe. Interspersed among the images are traditional meditations, prayers for healing, instructions for practice of Thai ceremonies, and biographies of famous Thai healers. Background information on the history and philosophy of Thai Buddhism and shamanism in non-technical and readable passages offer resources for further reading and study at the end of each chapter.
