Prasrabhi (Sanskrit; Tibetan: ཤིན་ཏུ་སྦྱང་བ་, Tibetan Wylie: shin tu sbyang ba, Pali: passaddhi) is a Mahayana Buddhist term translated as “pliancy”, “flexibility”, or “alertness” and is a blend from the ancient lineage of Nagarjuna, the Mahasiddha alchemist and master healer. We have trained with the Lama that is considered a living incarnation of this master, and have benefited in untold ways from these formula. These are not to be considered in the way that modern drugs seek to suppress symptoms but to work on ‘root causes’ the triggering aspects of feedback loops that create spirals of tension and distraction, to disassociative and distraction mechanisms of coping with reality. These create a rigidity of habit, habituated mindsets, wrong thinking and insight that become expressed as negative traits, behaviors, and poor choices. The Siddha create these formula, which are from the sacred mountain herbs, that are fermented and distilled and with a natural organic syrup base of glycerin to maximize the components absorbed in the three part extractions and combination with the minerals (bhasma). These are potent but gentle elixirs, best taken in spiritual reverence, in meditation, during fasting or extremely Sattvic diet as part of a detox from toxins, from intrusive thoughts, from wasted energy and wayward passions.

There are some proprietary herbs in this formula, but there is the ashwagandha full plant extract, with brahmi, Tibetan chulen essence, Five holy padma tulsi holy basils, red, white and blue lotus.
