Illusory Body is one of the “six yogas” of the Dzogrim completion stage of the Anuttarayogatantra. It is a direct and powerful form of Vajrayana psychotherapy, designed to authentically free ourselves from the superficial concepts we have about our own selves, and train us ultimately to use our wisdom mind to transform our body into that of an enlightened deity form of a buddha.

In this teaching, Dr. Nida introduces this unique practice and guide us in a practical meditation on working with hopes and fears.


Dr. Nida Chenagtsang was born in Amdo, North Eastern Tibet and trained in Sowa Rigpa (Traditional Tibetan Medicine) at the Lhasa Tibetan Medical University. Alongside his medical education, he has trained in Vajrayana with teachers from every school of Tibetan Buddhism and is a lineage holder of the Yuthok Nyingthig, the unique spiritual tradition of Tibetan Medicine. He has published several books and articles on Tibetan yoga and medicine and his extensive research and revival of ancient Tibetan healing methods has earned him great acclaim in both East and West. Dr. Nida is the Co-Founder and Medical Director of Sorig Khang International and Co-Founder of the International Ngakmang Institute, established to preserve and maintain the Rebkong ngakpa non-monastic yogi/ini culture within modern Tibetan society. In addition to his work as a physician, he trains students in Sowa Rigpa and the Yuthok Nyingthig tradition in over forty countries around the world.
