Dr. Tendhar Guge’s lectures, as seen in the previous venesection class, are always very insightful, demonstrating his exceptional skills in teaching, guiding practical sessions, and sharing his extensive clinical experience. I had been eagerly waiting for the courses on urinalysis and pulse diagnosis, and they truly clarified many of the questions I had. Thanks to Dr. Tendhar Guge’s detailed preparation of various clinical sample photos and videos, I was able to understand the topics with great clarity. I truly appreciate his dedication to sharing his extensive medical expertise with us students. I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Richoe Lhamo for her accurate and patient interpretation throughout the long lecture sessions, which greatly supported the students. The high-quality learning materials, recorded videos, and transcripts provided by the Sorig Khang Singapore team were extremely helpful. Special thanks to Ms. Jacqueline Yu for her meticulous moderation of the course content, ensuring a well-balanced learning experience for all the students. I believe all of this reflects the values of Sorig Khang Singapore, which deeply supports students striving to walk the path of Sowa Rigpa. I am also truly inspired by the enthusiasm of my fellow students during the Q&A sessions, which not only provide immense insights but also reignite my passion for Tibetan Medicine. I look forward to the next course by Sorig Khang Singapore with keen interest. I am truly grateful to everyone who worked tirelessly to make this course a success.
