LAMA TANTRAPA & TYLER BLANK

Lama Somananda Tantrapa is the holder of the lineage of Qi Dao - Tibetan Shamanic Qigong - that has been fostered in his clan for 27 generations. He has over 30 years of experience in Qi Dao and other internal martial arts. He was primarily trained by his Grandfather who was the last Grandmaster of Qi Dao.

Before immigrating to America, Lama Tantrapa actively participated in peace marches and conferences in the former Soviet Union supporting the peace work of his spiritual mentor and friend Junsei Terasawa who aspired to build a Peace Pagoda in the center of Moscow, Russia. His initiatives dedicated to peace work and spiritual freedom exposed him to persecution in his homeland, that is why he received religious asylum in the United States in 1997.

Lama Tantrapa is the author of several books on Qi Dao, multimedia educational materials, meditation CDs, DVDs, as well as Qi Dao Home Study Courses. Being an avid speaker and presenter, he appeared on many radio and TV programs in the US, Guam and abroad.

His idea of unity of different Qigong styles under the same roof manifested in his Radio talk show The Secrets of Qigong Masters and Mastery Journal ezine that is available for free at www.mastery-journal.com.
