དཔེ་ཆ

A woodblock printed unbound Tibetan text (pecha) on handmade paper in "headed" Tibetan dbu chen (Uchen) script. A short amchi (Tibetan medical) text, part ten of a series with eleven different subjects. The title of the text also refers to “wounds” so perhaps this is the central subject matter. སྐོར་ཚོམས་སྟོང་ཐུན་བཅུ་གཅིག་ལས་བཅུ་པ་རྨའི་སྟོང་ཐུན་བཞུགས་སོ།.
